Hgarvey Daniel Esquire Poet Choka

Mountain Birds

Atop the mountain
The small gurgling brook begins 
A song of Nature
                                                                                                                                
A song of Nature 
Whispering down the mountain
It’s sweet melody

It’s sweet melody
Babbling through the forest floor
Rushing to the sea
                                                                            
Rushing to the sea
Streams and brooks burble over
Roaring waterfalls

Roaring waterfalls
Splashing into the ocean
Far from the mountain

Inspired by Raul Moreno's The Sounds of Nature Contest
