Natures Wonder

Natures Wonder

Outside I see a tree
Bare winter leaves
In the silence I hear bee
Upon the summers eaves

Of a night I here an owl
Silenced by the light
In the forest I see a fowl
Attempting stately flight

By the light I see a fly
Cowering in the flame
I wave the sun goodbye
As winter comes to claim

In the air I smell a flower
Dancing in windless night
In the distance I see a tower
Bathed in the evening light

People settle and destroy the land
Planting their flag to claim
The area is now twisted and bland
By the lick of a serpents flame.
