Guests On This Earth

The beauty of this earth entrances
as water lilies do their dances.
Sky is framed by a storm cloud
while every raindrop sings out proud.

Mother Nature's quite alluring
and of mankind she's enduring.
Let us look out for her needs
and rectify those harmful deeds.

Enjoy the earthly gifts bestowed;
those painted landscapes that she showed.
For we are guests upon this planet
and must not take this all for granted.

You go girl! Every verse is a true gem...'framed' and 'painted', a reference to the art of the Easel I assume, although Mother Nature's art can never be matched or duplicated...
