Nature Show
Light subtley grows brighter
Rising to the top of the stage
The scene is illuminated fully
And the props reveal their colors
A breeze blows-
And on Cue
The trees begin to dance
The trees dance
Swaying merrily left to right
In perfect time
The wind cues again-
The bushes join in
Suddenly
Birds and insects
Join in with their songs
And there were highlights to be sure
A majestic elm soloing in a
Gentle breeze was a sight to behold
As the elm finished
A Cardinal picked up the tune
To carry the show on
Three curious squirrels had
Made a bashful appearance
Before scrambling back up their tree-
To be followed by a pair of rabbits
Who were much friendlier
The light began to dim quickly
The trees took their final bows
The birds quit singing
As the lights go dark
The show was over
