“Heather Teague Sees Beautiful Things” by Bob Rich

“Heather Teague Sees Beautiful Things” by Bob Rich for Heather and her mother Sarah Nell Teague, 9/7/10

Miss Heather looks for peace of mind and seeks out harmony

She finds it in God’s shining art — the sky’s bright canopy

The brilliance of the sun by day, the moon’s nocturnal glow

The clouds’ soft misty light which looks like slowly bursting snow.

 

She also finds enjoyment in the sparkling melodies

Of songs made by her favorite bands which lift her soul with ease

The song “Round Here” by Counting Crows finds beauty during strife

And “Lightning Crashes,” sung by Live, describes cycles of life

And “Night Moves” by Bob Seger wistfully recounts the night

When lightning adds some drama as teenagers see the light.

 

Miss Heather’s caring eyes perceive when people are in need

They often take from her, but still: compassion is her creed.

 

She first got lost in ’95, we’re searching all the while

Until that day when she returns with music and her smile.
