Beauty



"Beauty is visual but also exists in sounds, scents, tastes and touch." (Etched on a wooden sign at the South Texas Botanical Gardens.)


We journeyed in search of beauty,


vibrant color,


signs of spring


and new life.


We found it, God's gentle breath of life in the wonder of His creation


as we gazed and marveled at colors found only in flowers and dreams



and touched baby soft petals



and inhaled crisp air dampened by rain and made rich by earthy spring.



If this is only a shadow of the beauty found in Heaven, what glorious treasures await us there!
