Golden soft was the light that swiftly flew, As whistling rain pelted majestic oaks. And the soaked birds began to cry for you As Nature silently wrapped up its cloaks. Thirsty for coming dawn, so bold and new. Silver Maples fluttered in the wind, Where the fast sleeping rabbits hid away All beautiful, we wish to never end With brightened colors, every joyful day. As Nature's beauty flowed out to transcend. Dappled sunlight flickers in swaying trees Squirrels forage for their winter food store Shadows dancing in warm autumnal breeze The beauty of nature holds me in awe Man must protect earth; we are its trustees God blesses us with four seasons each year Each one brings its own delightful beauty Gardens grow, pretty flowers soon appear Bringing joy to our world for all to see Please cherish the world that we hold so dear Collaboration by Robert Lindley & Jan Allison 30th November 2014
