A Miracle In Breath

I see a miracle everywhere I look

In every flower and every brook

I see it in every tree growing tall

I hear it in every bird as it calls

I feel it deep in every breath

I see it in every birth and death

It is miraculous every night; I survive

It is miraculous every day; I am alive

Good stuff.

Only problem is the word 'calls' in L4

Perhaps something like "I hear it in every LONELY bird CALL" instead?
or maybe 'echoing' instead or 'lonely', or perhaps 'far off'? Something like that.

I love this

This is great. I love the theme. You’re a tight rhymer so this one fits into your style well but it’s very up lifting. I understand the lens through which you’re writing here and it’s one of my favorite moods.

Excellent
