Stepping outside
The sky is crystal clear
The sweet morning dew scent
Fills the cool crisp air

The sun is cresting the horizon
In all of its glory
This has the makings
Of a wonderful story

The sound of the mourning dove
Cooing from her nest
Frogs beginning to croak
Puffing out there chest

Hummingbirds playfully zigzagging
Busily flapping there wings
Honeysuckle vine vigorously growing
To the fence it clings

This is such a special treat
That nature is providing
The hawk circling high above
Effortlessly flying

I'd like to sit here all day
And admire this show
I'll etch this moment in my mind
But sadly I must go
