SONGS OF NATURE
You write of gushing 'sounds'
of the river as it winds
over valleys mountains and mounds
Slips and slides and in its course finds
a nightingale perched upon a tree
casting forth her melody.
You write when the sun shines,
bright at its zenith
it hums with a tune of its own
and that when thousand little bees
scurry over the garden ..
the 'buzz' and go forth.
I have seen the trees dance and sway
I have felt the cool of the water gay
the sun has often kissed me
and so has the rainbows mirth
and i have seen the birds flutter.
But not once in my life have i 'heard'
them buzz..hum..or rustle.
Not once have heard the song of the rain,
though many claim so
I wonder why havent I.
I really wonder why??
What difference does these
queries and wonder make to me
for it is an eternal truth
that i speak word ..
express ideas
and sing songs that
I myself do never hear!!
