The light blue sky above
And the dark green grass below,
I sat in my garden gazing
At the beautiful flowers I love.
Some are orange red,
Some a golden yellow
Some are very big
But none of them too small.
They danced in the gentle breeze
And smiled at the busy bees
Too beautiful were they, for words
With the dew drops sparkling their grace.
But then the birds twittered
And I turned thither,
For its song was very sweet
A gentle music in my ears.
Sparrows and cuckoos,
And others I little know
Flying in and out-
Of their little nests, so dainty.
Violet, blue, red and green
So was the rainbow seen
The black birds in the distant sky
Seemed like the beauty spot of the magical scene.
Then came the little butterflies
Stopping here and there
A perfect match for the fragrant flowers,
And the rainbow in the sky.
Which is more beautiful?
I wondered for a long time.
The birds, flowers or butterflies,
Or the rainbow in the sky?
Each element of nature
Seems just as nice as the other,
So a little poet like me
Finds it difficult to choose from so many! |
