Watching the world
Seeing,
People flock
to shadows,
statues,
pictures on walls.

When every day

Flowers bloom,
grass turns green,
trees grows buds,
     then colors perform.

Greatest Miracle
To me,
The Mother gives,
Gives birth,
to you and me,

Then the child,
is Born

Forever,
Thank you for reading, for there are miracles around us every day, and a lot of us just seem to forget that they are miracles, starting within ourself's.

Bernie I loved this!  We of course are the greatest miracle of all, as like a single snowflake,there are not two human beings created the same (yet!), and if we miss the little miracles, we miss life!  Great poem.
