Muse and Magic

Muse and Magic
created the world.
Imagined the eyes of a little girl
Showered the world
in color and light.
Oh what a silence
Oh, what a sight.
Muse was a wonder
at sewing the Earth.
Gave the flowers their color
and the oceans their worth.
And when it was all over
he stood back and sighed.
How could you look around you
and not feel alive?
Magic gave feeling
and feeling gave love.
And the world was wonderful
ground and above.
He smiled so brightly
with sparkles in his eyes.
How could you look aroud you
and not feel alive?
So we were born into wonder,
all the children of hope.
With the tools of the trade
and the courage to cope.
They left and looked onward
to the world within.
But we built and we broke down.
We scarred and caved in.
We can't see the origins
or the wonder intended.
So they frown and they worry,
both hurt and offended.
We don't see all the beauty
we just focus in strife.
How do we look alll around us
and not
feel alive?
