Can you imagine a day
Devoted to nature's play
We set aside daily fray
And walk on nature's highway
All our cars are put away
No sound of wheels on roadway
No planes will fly in blue sky
No contrails mar our view high
Mowers will stay in their shed
No roar to muddle our head
No saws buzz under bright sun
No shots of a hunter's gun
The sounds of nature will reign
As our voices slowly wane
We walk in nature's domain
Sipping from nature's champagne
Hear coos of gray mourning dove
Caws from black crows above
Woodpecker taps a tree trunk
A whiff of a roaming skunk
Watch robins snatch worm from ground
Brown rabbits hopping around
Creek gurgles over brown rocks
"Kek kek" of a sharp-shinned hawk
Ogle a white trout lily
Dappled leaves almost silly
Chicory grows by roadway
Bleeding heart blooms in pink spray
Chive flowers dance in soft breeze
Heaven: chives blended with cheese
Sit at the edge of the lake
Watch ripples of a duck's wake
An osprey dives from up high
A show that tickles the eye
Can you imagine a day
Devoted to nature's play
We set aside daily fray
And walk on nature's highway
