Nature's Sight-
If I were a tree, I'd stand tall and strong;
With raised hands and arms;
and waving leaves;
Liken a man with branches and limbs
Raised high to praise our Lord, Our God
If I were a flower I'd kiss the butterfly and bees;
While beneath me walk the human kind;
I'd kiss the flowers come in and out and pollinate me
Buzzing around sucking and soaring
Jaunty, flirting fluttering wee!
If I were a seagull like an angel I'll flout/fly above the surface world flapping my wings violently
As a seagull I'd be chatty, so bratty
Letting my voice be heard
Make rain sounds with my feet gather bread crumbs to attract the fish
And also gather worms hidden underground
While still tapping my feet on these ole grounds
Stomping, tapping, tapping, juz gitting down!
