I Waded Meadows and Cool Flowing Streams

Across the valley I journeyed far
Upon my heart(my spirit soared in dreams!)
Underneath the glowing day-bright star,
I waded meadows and cool flowing streams.

Beauty spoke from this shining land,
of sky, flowers, birds and bees
Deeper still in the tall black oak stand
and greater still, Nature guided me.
A wanderer in its glory so magnificently set
Painted with critters and deep mysteries
amazing wonders caught in its far flung net
Nature's wonders amassed throughout histories!

Across the valley I journeyed far
Upon my heart(my spirit soared in dreams!)
Underneath the glowing day-bright star,
I waded meadows and cool flowing steams.
