Poem

I wrote this poem for my parents for their birthday. Thought you guys might like it :)

****************************************************************************************************

The day is young whispered the early morning breeze,

Sunlight peering eagerly over the mountains

Ready, reaching for this new day

Aspiring to travel further than it had before

The moss covered the earth like a finely woven tapestry

Dew drops glossing the tips of pink rose petals

Coating them in reflective bliss

The river roars and waits for no one

Its function is to flow

We could learn a thing or two from the mighty river

The Oak tree stands proud in the clearing

Gnarled arms twisting into blue sky,

Reaching up towards our solar system’s star

Below, the wildflowers stained the hillside yellow

Making their mark upon the world

As birds sang a joyous tune of celebration

A symphony is rising

The orchestra of life

If we sit in silence we can listen

If we choose to wake we can understand

We are all a part of this beautiful symphony

Each one of us an instrument, a string, a flute

Through which the universe expresses love for all
