I rest my soul upon your beauty
In rimpled water it comes to ease
When sun is setting in reflection
And Winter's wind blows a soft breeze

My path was sowed with roses' thorns
And I walked barefoot all the way
Besides the thorns there was still place
Where in happiness I could stay

When you feel your soul is setting
Like the sun on a Winter's eve
When things look bad and terrible clouded
You even might find a place to believe

If I had to live without some nature
I'll rest my soul in the mighty sky
And I will plant some trees in a potty
Through their branches I could reach high

But once in a while I must return
To fill my soul with nature's strength
I am blessed to have her beauty
on a distance of one arm length

Like scattered leaves...my words will flow
