The Sound of Nature

Birds twitter in the sunlight

As some young girl plays the flute

Together they give you a sight

I see in the sky

A cloud like a boat

And other shapes of things

I can see butterflies flutter away

And Peter Pan in Never Land

The birds still sing peacefully

And I hear the waves of the ocean

These are few sounds of nature

The sounds of nature that are so familiar to me

Some are real sounds

Heard just to the senses

But the true sound

Echoes everywhere filled with happiness and beauty

And when I get home

I lie on my bed

And I fall asleep

Remembering the sounds of the bay
