Experience Nature

Open your eyes and see
The beauty in life  doesn't cost a thing
Open your heart and feel
It's all across the land

Take a moment
Appreciate the little things
Look around
True beauty lies within everything

The vibrant colors
A rainbow has
The soft songs
Of birds chirping

The smell of the ocean
The salt coming off the water
The trees all around
From the great oak to the weeping willow

A baby's sweet smile
Angelic appearance as they sleep
The innocence in a child
The curiosity they hold

A long drive through the country side
Admiring the scenery
The rolling hills
The green of the meadows

Road side fruit stands
A child's lemonade stand
A garden of fresh flowers
Picking fresh berries

The smell of morning dew
The scent of lavender in the fields
The musty smell of an oncoming thunder storm
The smell of lightening in the air

The first rays of the morning sun
Caressing your face as it peeks through your window
The cool serene feeling of a swim on a hot day
As the water penetrates the flesh relaxing your soul

There are so many things
The list is endless
I can only begin to tell you
Until you experience these things
You have yet even begun to live
