Golden soft was the light that swiftly flew, As whistling rain pelted majestic oaks And the soaked birds began to cry for you As Nature silently wrapped up its cloaks. Thirsty for coming dawn, so bold and new. Silver Maples fluttering in the wind, Where the fast sleeping rabbits hid away All beautiful, we wish to never end With brightened colors, every joyful day. As natures beauty flows out to transcend. And a thousand birds are chirping, Deep in the forest a cold pond sparkles On a steep rugged cliff are trees hanging They once had been mighty Sugar Maples. Decay has a beauty that stills the soul Sweet meadows of wildflowers sway and dance, A rainbow of colors under the sun All beautiful, and rabbits hop and prance And here comes fox, oh little rabbit run. Life and death are all part of natures way. _______________________ Rhyme Collaboration - Robert Lindley and Broken Wings
