Peace

 

 I find a peace with nature

within the great outdoors,

Where trees grow tall - no fence - no wall -

The tide that finds the shore,

A forest deep that beckons me

A quiet country lane,

Blue skies above - a world of love

And gentle Springtime rain.

 

My heart finds peace when robins sing

Where little violets grow,

Neath Summer sun - where streamlets run

When Winter brings the snow.

So much of beauty is my own

Whatever time of year,

I find it all - the Spring - the Fall

And moments filled with cheer.

 

So many blessings day by day

The happiness I share,

The clouds on high, a breeze to sigh

A magic everywhere,

Because my mind finds things worthwhile

God's wondrous sweet release,

Each shining smile makes life worthwhile

And lends a lasting peace.
