Birds of flight chirping with
natural delight,
sounds of music, the air fresh
and so clean,
soaring across dawns early light
such a sight,
nature’s wonders create such
angelic scenes.
Rabbits frolicking in the tall
blades of grass,
gentle deer so meek, standing at
woods end,
glimpse of Heaven, white clouds
slowly pass,
picture perfect setting to share
with friends.
Nature holds the peace and
turmoil on earth,
this struggle to survive, it
keeps us all alive,
living is a gift that stays with
us from birth,
if it was easy, well, we just
wouldn’t thrive.
Sadly beauty surrounds us but we
don’t see,
lost in self indulgence, always
on the move,
wanting more when enough is all
we need,
simple pleasures found at the
shore of the sea.
Now, yesterday is gone, it is
now the past,
and, tomorrow is merely a
glimmer of hope,
for nothing of this earth is
made to ever last,
so many things we do just so we
can cope.
