Life

As I sit I watch as I watch I listen I try and wonder what this life means the trees dance as 
there branches sway with the music of the wind moves through them and whispers a tune of 
undiscovered secrets 
The sun shines as it sends rays of light down to touch every thing with a kiss of warmth 
The sky so blue like the depths of the ocean is scattered with clouds pulling a light gray 
blanket over the world but as the shadows convoy and the sun says good bye the darkness 
creeps over and every thing changes the grass so green like the colour jade now turns dark 
emerald the leaves whip over the ground like tears shed from the trees water falls from 
above and covers every thing with a gleaming sparkle like diamonds the birds above with 
the music of the wind beneath there wings giving them a life of there own as the majestic 
eagle sores and dives you cant help but watch as nature takes it Corse the predator dives 
again into the sea and fly’s away victories with his pray so helpless is the fish to struggle 
with the eagle with the waves beating against the shore I walk in to the suns rays again they 
touch my face with a kiss of warmth chasing the shadows away the grass once more jade 
green the ocean reflecting the sky blue like a mirror with the sand between my toes my path 
clear for the moment of pain and unknown so as I travel I once more listen and I take the 
winds advice I go with the music of life down my path and disappear with the wind my spirit 
souring
