At One With Nature
I stood alone upon a hill
whilst all around was quiet and still
I watched as birds flew from tree to tree
and envied how they are so free
I sat alone to ponder life
imagined me as some man's wife
as branches played in a gentle breeze
and envied the freedom of the trees
I lay alone on a bed of fallen leaves
taking shade under the canopies
hearing creatures scurry here and there
and envied their life so free of care
I wandered home alone in a daze
enjoying the last of summer's rays
I watched as day turned into night
and envied the owl her evening flight.
