Some days, I wake up to see the sun smiling,
The birds singing along the host of heaven,
The trees waving at me stroll by,
The breeze gently whispers to me
Sweet melodies of nature’s song
However, this beauty eludes me
For I focus on my have nots,
And ride on my horse of wishes,
For I beg them to come true
And come hastily…
However, I listen not to nature’s tunes
Maybe I’ll follow their rhythm,
Maybe I’ll sing with the angels too,
Maybe I’ll clap with the trees
And smile back at the sun
Maybe, I’ve been too focused on myself
To see the beauty in others
To see the beauty in nature
For everything works together,
To make a day special,
No matter how bad it may seem…
