Beyond the Door I like a room where curtains blow From open window panes that show The glory of spring flower beds. Where lovely blossoms raise their heads. Where songs of warbling birds declare Their world is fresh and green and fair And white narcissus scents the breeze With sweet aromas bound to please. I like the natural world that waits Beyond the door, beyond the gates And there, my footsteps leave scant trace. I make no impact on this place, But on my heart and soul, it's lore Is deeply rooted, evermore And daily, I reach out to hear The songs that echo in my ear, From bees and birds, from wind and trees And all of nature's harmonies. Betty Lou Hebert Published by Drury's Publishing 1996 and 1999 [This message has been edited by Trillium (04-10-2002 07:52 PM).] |

This is truly lovely Betty. We're still waiting for spring to come to stay. One warm day followed by rainy, windy and cold. Maybe May will be the changeover. Love, Joyce |
