Take a Break

The early morning dew falls on my face Telling me it's time for me to wake Wake up and see nature at its best Wake up, lazy boy! It isn't the time to rest I look around and see the birds fly Looking for food, so their chicks don't cry Chirping merrily singing a joyous song I find myself wishing I could fly along Fly with them to the edge of the sky From where I could see humans trudging by Going along doing their daily chores Will less, witless, oh! what bores Look at the birds and learn thy lesson It's more than a look that makes us human When did we stop seeing the sights Through God given wonders called eyes Open them eyes and look around There's much to see, much to be found Much to teach our little ones Lest they grow up to be no ones The early morning dew falls on my face But hey! I am human, I have my rat race Nature beckons me to be part of her beauty But all I do is work, and think, that's my duty Take in the sights while you can humans Because there isn't going to be a world for ever Learn to differentiate between your work and your duty Take a break and enjoy nature's beauty
