Awakening
by April Mattox



With the earth at my feet and the sky in sight,
I listen for the sounds that only Mother Nature can cry,
The wind is blowing through my hair,
just as the birds sing soft melodies for me to hear.
No other soul could be so alive,
as Mother Nature in my eyes.
Each day is new, ready to begin
with new sounds and sights that start from within.
Now you must open the door, and allow them in.
They will change your attitude as well as your life,
therefore you must be prepared to love, and live life!
