Sparkling diamonds in the sky,
Gold dust beneath my feet,
Treasure trailing ‘round each corner
Suggesting to my eyes to peek,
Flitting, fleeing, bouncing,
Bush to tree to flower,
Life is running overland
Displaying awesome power,
Masterfully orchestrated,
Most colorful parade,
Distraction still is paramount-
Enmeshed in this charade.
