Nature's Perfect Symphony
Have you ever watched an eagle
soaring it its flight?
Have you ever heard a frog sing
as he calls out in the night?
Have you ever seen a chipmunk
and looked him in the eye?
Have you ever felt a wolf was near
when you heard his lonesome cry?
Have you ever watched the cows come home
one by one, in line?
Have you ever observed a swooping bat
in the darkness of nighttime?
Have you ever felt the softest fur
on a little kitten's back;
or touched the velvet cover
on a young deer's rack?
have you ever watched the moon come up
long before it's due
or watched it go down slowly
when the sun was up there, too?
Have you ever watched a butterfly
struggle to be free
of the cocoon which changed it
into what it was meant to be?
Have you ever watched a spider
spin his silken chain
if something tore it down
it quietly began again?
There are things which we can learn
if we only watch and see.
It's all right here before us......
Nature's Perfect Symphony.
