A Place In the Sun

We do enjoy free air, water and the light Nature’s beauty is all around for delight. With his blue umbrella, He’s there to pour Is there anything we could ask for more?. Let us us keep our fair faces to wear The light of a pleasant spirit there. Let us make our fair hands that do Deeds those are noble, good and true. Let us keep our fair feet that may go Quickly to lighten another’s woes. These are the things worth, I prize Light, all around, of the sapphire skies. Peace around, comfort of the green grass And the clouds’ shadows that swiftly pass. One may talk of fame and its laurels bright, But he will miss his peace in the sun upright. +++ January 17, 2015 Form: Rhyme

nature is different from the feeling of ours though we are in the nature. We calculate with our desires and aspiration but the nature keeps its own silent. Last two lines are clear here about that. Done nicely my lovely friend. Loved always,bl
