The Sounds of Nature

the sounds of nature,
as you sit and listen,
to everything around,
being qiute and waiting.

you can hear the leaves moving,
the birds singing,
the wind blowing, and the bees buzzing.

as you sit and listen,
you can hear horns blowingin the distance,
planes flying in the sky getting ready to land,
and cars moving down the street.

you can hear all that,
just by sitting outside,
on your porch,
and listening with your eyes closed.

Isn't it wonderful to feel so much inspiration by simply closing your eyes while sitting on your porch. Nature does it for me everytime! Beautiful writing, Bonnie. Love, Carolyn
