Nature's Beauty

Redwoods standing tall and strong.

sycamores with mushroom-like foliage.

Maple with their sap soon to be syrup.

Willows weeping in the new dawn light.

Cardinals singing on the branches of a oak tree 

At the rising sun.

Pine

never changing 

yet always growing.

taller 

taller

taller.

Reaching 

for the heavens.

A small colony of ants living in the ground.

All working together to create a haven of life.

Take away one thing 

and it all 

falls 

apart.

Please treat mother nature with respect.

After all we owe our lives to her.
