A Lovely Day

The waterfall cascades, sun kissed As a rainbow envelopes the waters mist And salmon rise in harmonious dance Glistening in unison to the shoals advance. The sun embraces the newest day It’s warmth encapsulated in each and every ray As the flowers respond to our stars embrace So the bees can feast with appreciative grace. Birds joyfully sing with a pride so pure To be natures medicine of the woes we endure As the fresh brisk breeze on a sun showered face Is a reminder of our belonging in this time and space. A butterfly passes with kaleidoscope colour Fluttering silently with a delicacy of splendour As the hue of blue encircling our planet Contrasts the green of lands own natural palette. The sun descends with golden enrichment As the curtain closes on a days fulfilment In awe we look up to the heavens and pray ‘God deliver us tomorrow another lovely day’.
