    Mother Nature

    I walked down the road
    for a long time today...
    and I'll do it again,
    any time, any place.

    The birds were so happy,
    the trees were all swaying...
    and I thought of summer
    as I passed children playing.

    I sat in the dirt
    for a time on my knees,
    and I noticed the farms
    in the sweet country breeze.

    The horses were grazing
    from beneath a blue sky,
    with the sun shining bright
    and white clouds drifting by.

    Not one person will know
    of the treasures I've seen,
    since our Mother Nature
    has brought back the spring.

    I had a nice time on
    my little walk today.
    I will do it again...
    any time, any place.

    Cool! The rhymes were a bit forced in a couple of places which stole some of the enjoyment away from me.

    They "were" forced. I try to rhyme everything...some like it, some don't. Rhyme and Meter were beat into my head by my Father "and" my English teacher at a young age... now it doesn't feel right if I can't make it rhyme. We all have our quirks, lol. I appreciate your honesty though, as I've said before, that's important!! I'm not one to get offended easily.

    I like your poem, i agree with the perspective on nature itself and how you can never honestly tire of it.

    Thanks. I really did take that walk! I grew up in the country, live in the city now...so when I went home for a visit I soooo missed being there!

    I agree with SAYANDSEE. You have a lot of talent.

    Thank you. My Father told me it wasn't talent, it was learning how to manipulate words, lol. He used to write all me excuses to the junior high school in rhyme...emBARassing!!! lol
