All Too Wonderful

The trees are given to you, to me The clouds are given to us, for free The grass turns green overnight, prithee The birds sing sweet as the honeybee And if all this seems too wonderful to be The whole Earth belongs to the Lord, you see ~ Gershon Wolf, April 09, 2021 ~

Gershon, you know be by now I hop, I would never not see this, but I apologise it tooks some time - three lovely verses, which tell us what the Lord gave us, and we plundering idiots on earth are destroying it an polluting it. Congratulations on a superb POTD. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer Jennifer.
