Parallel Existences

In the distance, tall trees raise their arms to the sky Giving shade below, beckoning birds on the fly While in the fields below, harvests wait for their time A cycle of life and death, through rhythm and rhyme. Whether it be a mountain, or an ancient tree Or a bird on the wing, deer running wild and free Or a flower that blooms, if only for a while Knowing it is God’s master plan, should make you smile. For in life, as in nature, each fulfills a roll Each one has a purpose, a small part of the whole A symphony of living, fashioned by Gods hand Man, and nature, made to coexist in this land. Their lives played out in this unknown eternity Ours not to question, but faithfully, clearly see Both nature and man, each living out His plan Each fulfilling their destiny, since time began.
