ENVIRONMENTAL Poem: THE AHA Moment, by Margie B. Klein

Beauty is what we’re here for.
To utilize our sense of wonder
To create a path of wonder for others.
Be awake in the now and
Find that connection to the universe
To dig deep and discover what is in us
That is moved by the aesthetically pleasing.
Why is that which we call beautiful pleasing to us?
It’s an innate attraction to that which sustains the spirit.
It’s the hope that the world is good.
Growing, caring, sensing meaning.
These are the purposes of being alive.
When we see how it all fits together
We want to help nature and help others
To catalyze the process. Then we can say
We were an active part of it,
We wondered, we connected, we acted.
The moment we say, “Aha!”
