God Talking

God talking

while I was walking

down my long country road

that was shady,

over top of my head

up on a tree branch, sat a bird

singing away as if

to say

what kind of troubles

are you going through today?

well I thought it seem like

people coming at me from every where

then again the bird chirp's one more time

as if to say

look a round you,

what would God do?

slow your life down to

a slower pace,

try to make time for friends and family

because you don't have time 

to waste,

go out and take long walks in the fields

and pick a flower or two,

throw your hook in a pond

and sit and try fishing a while,

Read your Bible before you 

to bed,

and if you pray I am sure

those worry will go flying

right out of your head,

nature has a way of comforting us

in our busy every day life

it a plus,
