A picturebook of nature's beauty
Gradually unfolded before my eyes
Beginning with the breathtaking beauty
Of the most spectacular sunrise

The tree fern was covered in dew
The fronds glistening in the sun
This amazing display of nature
Had really only just begun

More beauty began to unfold
As I walked out onto the lawn
In a nest I spied four blackbirds
Who had only just been born

The bees and butterflies searched for nectar
Amongst the smorgasboard of blooms
High up above was the bird of paradise tree
With gigantic leaves that loom

A kaleidescope of color
Can be found here beneath the sun
What a wonderful place to unwind
When all of my chores have been done

No price can be put on this paradise
This part of nature is mine to keep
Pleasant dreams I'll have here in my garden
As I relax here and drift off to sleep

Can you package this mini-Eden and send it up here to me?
Thanks again, Sue. You always seem to post a bit of paradise.
