Morning birds singing joyfully in
the trees,
beneath the vast endless sky of
velvet blue,
without a care, only themselves to
please,
each and every day, always starts
brand new.
Squirrels scamming upon the cold
ground,
tending to all their needs and daily
chores,
gathering up seeds and nuts from all
around,
wide open spaces, where there are no
doors.
Rabbits munching down on the green
grass,
timid and afraid, constantly looking
about,
knowing the peace and harmony won’t
last,
danger comes in the silence without
a shout.
Deer grazing in the soft meadows and
fields,
possessing a wild essence beyond
compare,
out in the open without a protective
shield,
not even worrying if their life will
be spared.
Creatures of nature going about
their day,
living their lives as it was
intended to be,
taking and giving in their own
special way,
without hurting mother nature, or
you, or me.
