Nature's Victory

 

Golden rays of an autumn dawn

Caress me as I look

Upon the regal golden carpet

Under my unworthy feet

Natures green is changing

Into a sea of wondrous colours

Naked branches stare down

At their gleaming leaves

Conversing in hushed tones

The sweet song of a feathered friend

An overwhelming sense of calm

Glowing cheeks

My nose is red

As the wild wind whistles all around

At this moment

I could be the only one on earth

But the buzz of life is not far away

So much beauty

so much peace

I feel proud to see

The richness of the changing year

Another victory for mother nature

She is supreme.

Remember Youth

 

Here’s to our youth

The days we spent in the sun

Those special days out

With a close loved one

Those days on the beaches

Where our spirits ran free

To the days in front of the fire

Or singing around the Christmas tree

Remember kicking a ball

Or dressing a doll

Just sitting around talking

Watching the leaves fall

Our youth is so precious

We should cherish it well

Because before we know it

We're all grown up

Life is full of problems and mistrust

So keep youth in your heart

And your memories near

And you'll always be young

No matter how old you are.
