A ballad plays before me on this short spring day
as the daisies began to sway

The chirps of crickets set the rhyme low and steady

then jumps in a quick piping sound of a mocking bird a few feet of the ground

continuous and unified they seem to play on joined by the rush of the wind against the leaves in the trees

The melody is natures own yet I start to hum along
to this special performance in a field of flowers
becoming part of the harmony

Note after note the day draws near and the sun begins to set the concert slowly begins to calm
the mocking bird flies off into the countryside

the crickets’ quiet down and  the wind quits and I take my leave from Mother Nature's orchestra until the next time I just happen along
