OUR BEAUTIFUL EARTH (Poem #119)
Pastures of green, fields of gold,
mountains with snow on their tops.
Farmer's plowing, spreading their seed and
then harvesting their crops.
Great wide skies of blue with
clouds puffy white,
Or black skies with stars twinkling
through the night.
Rainbows arching from horizon to horizon
right after a rain.
Waterfalls flowing down
the mountainside came.
Flowers in bloom
and trees growing so high.
To look at this beautiful earth
gives me a sigh.
It all fits together
to make a beautiful picture,
And makes us lucky to be here
and feeling a whole lot richer.
