Nature's Song

Whenever I hear the heavens sing 
Or see the sun shining down 
Or behold any living thing 
That walks on this hallowed ground, 
Whenever I see the earth in spring 
Fertile and blooming with life 
Or hear the birds sweetly sing 
Their joyful song in the morning light, 
Then how grateful I am
Here on this abundant earth 
Surrounded by nature and man
And behold that glorious rebirth, 
Such is nature's song to me
Uplifting the soul, joyful and free.

The loveliness and simplicity of your poem is like a little one leaning down to look at a flower blooming through a crack in the sidewalk. It has a spirit of wonder, awe and thankfulness! Thank you for reminding us we need to look at the wonder living all around us. Think I'll go for a walk. Congratulations on your POTD!
