Wonders of the World
The ripples of the waves, glistening in the sun.
The sun shining high in the sky.
The sky, a vast area of sun and clouds.
The clouds a wondrous source of rain.
The rain, in different forms, sometimes a drizzle, sometimes a drop.
The drop, and the drip, as it falls into the sea.
The sea an enormous land filled with water and fish.
The fish, with a variety of magnificent colours.
The colours of a rainbow shining after a storm.
The storm full of bright thunder and lightning.
The lightning as it appears as fast as the Flash.
As I sit back and think about all that I’ve thought
I realise something I’ve never before.
Forget about the Statue of Liberty or India’s Taj Mahal.
Or the Eiffel Tower or China’s Great Wall.
Forget about all these things that have no importance to me.
Because I’ve found the true Wonders of the World, you see.
