A Sweet Melody

Sunshine smiles on butterflies
 That flutter by the rose
 Their  crimson petals mesmerize
 As their fragrance they impose

Clouds float by, puffy and proud
 As they slowly change  their hue
 And with gray they enshroud
A sky that once boasted  blue

 A squirrel laughs at a dog that barks
 Before scampering up a tree
A chorus is sparked by birds in the park
 As they sing  sweet melodies 

 The birds sweet songs flow right along
 As the trees sway in rhythmic pleasure
    Thunder roars strong in baritone song
 As the clouds release their treasure
