I went for a walk, and what did I see?
What the earth, had to give, with all of its beauty.
.
The trees were standing tall and strong-
As I simply carried along.
.
There were flowers growing astray-
A newer one, for a brand new day.
.
The turtles were in the shell-
Guess they don’t like company, as
far as I can tell.
.
Little bugs crawling everywhere-
In the grass, on the rocks that were bare.
.
Sometimes we take this all for granted,
as we travel along-
To hear the birds, in full song.
.
Doesn’t take an electronic gadget, to
enjoy Mother Nature-
Been here forever, and in the future
will endure.
.
I went for a walk, and what did I see?
What the earth, had to give, with all of its beauty.

We had to wait in line-
And, really and truly,
we did not mind.
.
Not to say, that it was
fun-
But, it was something
that had to be done.
.
For we had no choice-
And, surely, we would
not raise our voice.
.
It could not be helped
and we were stuck-
Because something had
had gone amuck.
.
So, we decided to end
the suspense-
And, just try a bit, of
patience.
.
Of course, we waited too
long-
But, then again, we are
strong.
.
We had to wait in line-
And, really and truly,
we did not mind.
