Some of Life´s Mysteries a Bonnie Manion Poem

Some of Life´s Mysteries

What can I say to the falling leaves,
to the cry of a bird,
to the mirroring creek?

What can I add to the height of a tree,
to the color of a flower,
the work of a bee?

What can I know of the depths of the sea,
God's plan for an embryo,
or why He loves me?
