When you walk along the wooded path In the nature my heart held dear Remember the joy that it gave me And know that I will always be near
Remember me
When a robin announces his presence Singing solo as the day becomes new The doe lifts her head to listen As her fawn drinks the freshness of the dew
Remember me
When an Otter glides through the river, His swim is a masterful one He engages his mate in a playful chase Then they climb on the rocks to sun
Remember me
When the rustling leaves touch the autumn sky Boasting colours of yellow and gold Geese fly on their southernmost journey To escape from the beckoning cold
Remember me
When the North wind blows through towering pines It delivers a mid winter’s chill While snowflakes land softly on fresh frozen lakes And the call of the wild becomes still
Remember me
In each of these things, remember me And know that I’ll always be near The woodlands, God’s wondrous Creation In his nature my heart held so dear.
