"Walk with me"...said the Sun

Upon a hilly-ridge I sat...

The Sun called out to me...

"Let me warm you, What do you see?"

I replied...so many beautiful things are free...

The air I breathe...sweet-snowy taste

Snowflakes gathered as soft as lace

"Walk with me...said the Sun"

Into the forest wonder I went...

The entrance of evergreens offered their scent

Icicles draped from naked limbs of icey-oaks

Listening, I could hear the echo's... of eagles as they spoke

"What is it, that you learned this day, said the Sun?"

I replied, the Earth is a treasure...all the elements our pleasure...
