A poem from my book entitled Slices of Life. I had this booklet published and copyrighted in 1997, while residing at Elliot Lake, Ontario.

I would like to share this poem with your reading subscribers. I've recently written about 15 more, and plan to have all poems (approximately 61) republished if I can find a publisher willing to do them. They deal with all aspects of life (birthdays, anniversaries, war, death, loneliness, seasons, etc.).


May

"Mother Nature" waves her magic wand
And May appears in style.
The welcome rays of warming sun
Now visit earth and stay awhile.

Plants and flowers soon will sprout
From dormant beds beneath the ground
While lively animals in the wood
Herald their rebirth with frenzied sound.

The mighty oak and willow trees
Begin to don new dress,
As buds appear on branches bare
With greens and yellows showing best.

Life in nature seems now revived
And happiness fills the air
As God's joyful creatures interact
While living life with little care.   Submitted By: NULL
