Beauty of Nature

BEAUTY OF NATURE
A butterfly on a flower,
It's a moment of pure delight
Testing the nectar with it's feet,
Colourful wings ready for flight.

A ladybird sits on a leaf,
Her red and black body so small,
Working at eating those bugs,
Who ruin plants, making leaves fall.

There's bees buzzing over a bush
All covered with pretty flowers,
Taking pollen back to the hive,
To make honey by the hours.

Ants scurrying to build their nests
They sense rain is on the way,
Each scene is joyful to ponder
The beauty of nature each day.

Thanks again Daniel. Ants still have a job to do so long as it is not 'ants in your pants' (ouch) Vivien
