Listening In Spring

Blue Jays on a branch practicing what they sing Lions roaming the safari proudly acting like a king Leaves falling down, back and forth they gently swing Listen it is Mother Nature that you are now hearing Winter melts away and rain washed into the Spring Two squirrels run up a tree for a little fun-time fling The wind whips in the canyons, off the hills it pings This beauty of our world is uncomparable to anything Within the darkest night glowing eyes are always peering With sounds that have their own special sort of ring The Worlds way up high back and forth the stars they sling So many unanswered questions the Heavens always bring The falcon in the sky up and down it flaps each wing Searching the field below for it's days first offering Even sometimes the act of a kill is still a wondeful thing So grateful to be blessed of something so awe inspiring
