" Dancing" By Tyler J. Maraia
The trees they dance as the wind blows
there leaves just whistle and they glow
the birds chirp and fly around
there beautiful noise fills the air with sound
the path gleams with a beautiful light
as the sun shines oh so bright
the trees they dance as the wind blows
why they dance nobody knows
perhaps they feel the creator as he walks on by
or maybe they just feel like dancing they don't even know why.
"Beauty"
Its beautiful the sky
as you sit and look up
the blue and the clouds
all puffy reflecting down on the ground below
the background of the trees and the beauty of the flowers
captures such a sweet sweet moment that cannot be sowered
step on the boardwalk and take a walk to the lake
and stop and admire the beauty for heavens sake
for God created the world for us to live
but its more than that its a gift from God
that he loved to Give.
These are just some of the thoughts that came to mind as I walked along and would occasionally pause to listen to nature. The walk was nice and the lake was breath taking. As I walked along I began to pray and just listen to the wind as it would blow through the trees and observe if maybe, just maybe I could hear something. I listened to two birds have a conversation as if they were asking each other how they were doing and how everything was. They were probably talking about where the food for the day was and the shelter for the night but just maybe just maybe it was more than that. Maybe it was a conversation about life and living and everything that birds do and maybe they were talking about God. About there creator, sort of exercising that "animal instinct". Who knows?
