~listen~

the heartbeat of the mountains
is pulsing in every stone
muticolored insects
go about their duties
be still and listen….
you can hear them roam

crystal streams
racing with pride
butterflies of every kind
flutter at the feet
of those passing by

Aspen leaves like wind chimes
singing Nature’s highest praise
two hundred Elk in deep, sunlit woods
some at rest, some stop to graze

the Earth is alive
with movement and sound
listen….....to Nature…...
what will You have found?
