Shades of Nature 2
A Place to Be
The grass is greener than green;
the sky as blue as can be.
Hills adorned with wildflowers
that waft freely in the breeze.
.
The raccoons paw their food.
Bunnies hop up and down.
The deer take quiet steps.
Butterflies flutter around.
.
Should there be a place to be,
I would choose to be right here.
Rolling hills and all its nature
whisper “Come” into my ear.
A Slice of the Night
The dawn of the day,
a slice of the night;
should you mix them up,
twould make quite a sight.
.
Stars would shine dim
because of the light,
while dawn would become
a twinkly twilight.
And the Night Sang
The sun fell from its perch on high.
The moon lightened the darkening sky.
Stars peeked out, twinkling one by one
and the night sang
until the dawn.
Arms Outstretched
O’er the grassy green hill
and into the meadow below,
They ran with arms outstretched,
with nary a care to show.
.
The children danced and played,
surrounded by colorful flowers.
They laughed and skipped for joy,
when the clouds released their showers.
Bluster and Luster
Stars sparkling on high,
the lake did embrace.
The water’s reflection,
the moonbeams did chase.
The wind joined the choir,
emptying the trees.
In the cover of night,
it stole all the leaves.
The wind and the moonbeams,
the stars in the sky;
bluster and luster
from ‘neath to on high.
