The leaf at your feet waits for the winds Lifting it higher than the tree from which it fell It soars among the birds and currents then lands Upon calm waters of oceans greeting the sunrise Lift your head look ahead Breathe the freshness of the morning Look upward as the sun hits your eyes Feel the warmth, do not look down Your new day has begun, smile, do not frown Take a rest for a moment view the beauty nature gives Take it all in, you are a part of the process, be alive Listen to the sounds of water, the breezes Watch the butterfly land on the flower's petals It too is resting, it too lives and is part of it all Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) [This message has been edited by Daniel J D (edited 11-01-2001).] |

I love this, it has such a positive feeling. "Take a rest for a moment view the beauty nature gives Take it all in, you are a part of the process, be alive Listen to the sounds of water, the breezes Watch the butterfly land on the flower's petals It too is resting, it too lives and is part of it all" Thanks, Daniel! |
