Overwhelmed By Human Splendor

The moments are rare and fleeting
And overwhelm the soul when they strike;
Induced by human splendor,
The heart swells with a laugh and a sob
All at once,
With no words to interpret the thoughts
And no thoughts to interpret the feeling;
And so my mind’s bewildered
By my heart’s recognition of beauty
In the achievements of man,
Until again I am astonished
And rejuvenated.
