THE GIFT OF LIFE.

As firelight dances in the deep dark night
a myriad of stars twinkles ever so bright,
and the cool evening air cedes slowly to day
as the suns gentle warmth chases night time away.
A zephyr of wind caresses the trees
while soft golden sunlight kisses the leaves,
and grass in the shadows, still laden with dew
upon rolling hills, a rich earthen hue.
Foaming white surf makes love to the sand
as a clouds roving shadow embraces the land,
and swift flowing rivers, in valleys so deep
meander past clifftops, so high and so steep.
Deep in the forests almost obscured from light
are rare, precious plants - a beautiful sight,
and a mountain up high, all powdered in snow
overlooks a vast tapestry of colours below.
Most of these things we all take for granted
we seem to forget that all life is enchanted,
our destruction of nature is something that's rife
but we should not destroy it - it's a true gift of life!
