William L. Moore

Looking at the pretty flowers
Brought to us by the many showers
With all that’s still in bloom
Cast shadows up on their flume

Sitting at the table
Good, willing, ready and able
The scent is so pungent
As we sit amongst it

Lavender, Cherry and Chamomile
Bring forth the feelings that we feel
Sitting in the shade of the hill
The entire world stands still

Dear lord I ask my soul to keep
As I rest my bones and go to sleep
As the shining light shall fade
Another day has been made
