What is grace

Grace is the rising sun
that smile on our earth with radiant light
It is the enveloping dusk
That usher in the peaceful night.

Grace is the colourful butterfly
That pollinate the farmer's plant
And turn flowers to tasteful fruits.


Grace is eyes to see adoring beauty,
Ears to hear beautiful melodies,
Nose to smell opulent fragrance
And tongue to taste juicy delicacies.

Grace is the care from family,
The togetherness of the community
That brings peaceful coexistence.

Grace is a heart to have loving feelings,
And a sound mind to live rationally.
Grace is sleeping on trouble night
And waking to morning's joy.

Grace speaks to ears that listen,
It walks on street of the meek
And sleeps at the home of the godly.

Poet note: grace is everywhere, just that you haven't look enough to see it.
