Watching the clouds
Listening to the birds chirp
Flower buds begin to blossom
Frogs nightly serenade on the patio
My inanimate presence they know
Birds carry worms to their nests
Hawks attack smaller critters
Gators quickly "snatch" an unwary animal
Vultures "feast" on road kill
Nature Cycle can often appear cruel
Thinking back on my past stupid decisions
Of course when younger, foolish seemed OK
Now, however, I realize decisions often
were lacking "enough good" sense
The Joy of youth is paid for in the ageless
Joy of growing older and please, GOD, wiser
Watching clouds float by and enjoying Nature
