I travel throughout the swamp, engulfing all of nature
My favorite is the Lilly pads
They are so beautiful
Sprinkles of water glimmer in the light as they relax on the Lilies pad
The Lilly pads strong stem captures a fishermen's lure and gives it a home in the swamp
A turtle slowly drifts to sleep on the lily pad, while being blanketed in the warm rays of the sun
The sweat fragrance of the snow white flowers penetrates throughout the scenic swamp
Your muscles strengthen, as they struggle to push a kayak away from a Lilly pads tight grip
The large green pads carpet the warm summer water, sheltering young fish from lurking herons
As the lily pads sink into the cold fall waters I become sad
But when ever I am sad I think of the Lilly pads

A glowing sunset
Grass glides across the lynx
Eyes are keen on pray

Life is a book,
And you are the author.
Every day is a new page
Every mistake is a crumple or tear
Every smile is an exclamation point
Every new stage in life is a chapter
Your friends, foes, and family are characters.
You are the author
You write out what YOUR life will be like.

A small snow dusting
A blade cuts through the snow
The snow still comes down
