You are every blade of grass
naturemusicmortality
You are every blade of grass
The daisy in a chain
The ring around my finger
Every tree hiding in shadow
Wreathed in wonder
Sheltering a smile
The clouds call out
A silently built crescendo
Mounting a chorus
Of approval as
A blood red sunset
Pulls a blanket over a
Baby powder blue sky
A sunflower
Is a slow hand
Waving as the day dies.
You are the humming bird
The bumble bee
The song of summer
The humble beginning
The glorious end
Waiting for a rainbow
To burst into song
You are the treasure
The prize
Most coveted
As the burning orb sets
In a blaze of burnished
Perpetuity
You are as always
Is forever.
