Deep In the Forest
Golden soft was the light that swiftly flew,
As whistling rain pelted majestic oaks
And the soaked birds began to cry for you
As Nature silently wrapped up its cloaks.
Thirsty for coming dawn, so bold and new.
Silver Maples fluttering in the wind,
Where the fast sleeping rabbits hid away
All beautiful, we wish to never end
With brightened colors, every joyful day.
As natures beauty flows out to transcend.
And a thousand birds are chirping,
Deep in the forest a cold pond sparkles
On a steep rugged cliff are trees hanging
They once had been mighty Sugar Maples.
Decay has a beauty that stills the soul
Sweet meadows of wildflowers sway and dance,
A rainbow of colors under the sun
All beautiful, and rabbits hop and prance
And here comes fox, oh little rabbit run.
Life and death are all part of natures way.
