Notes About The Poem

 

I Love Nature

I love all the changes the seasons bring
crisp autumn leaves or winter’s icy freeze
and in the summer sun I’ll be basking
Mother nature’s gifts

I can hear the dawn chorus sweetly sing
spiders spin threads like a shiny trapeze
and tiny fledgling chicks take to the wing

I adore the colors of stunning spring,
pale pink sakura blossoms adorn trees
bright xanthic daffodils look quite dazzling
Mother nature’s gifts
