take a look

take a look around you
what is it that you see?
a live beautiful plant
or a strong green tree?
how many flowers are there around you?
how about two, three, or four?
maybe there are many more!
do you feel the hot summer sun?
how much of it can you take?
before you burn, before you get into a lake?
do you take this world for granted?
you think this world is so unkind
like it has turned its back on you,
but deep inside, you know its only in your mind.
so next time you go outside
smile to each and everyone you see
and tell them how glad you are
and please don't make them flee!
