I’d Delight In……

 

I’d delight in a day

In the wonderful world of words

I’d take them apart and jumble them up

What you’ll get is hard to tell

They’re the craziest stuff

That ever passed through a ear

And with this gift I put words to song

 

I’d delight at a turn

At the ivories

And tickle them ever so gently

A wide grin spreads across my face

As a lilting melody sails through the air

I am satisfied with

My song for the beauty of nature

 

I’d delight in a look out of the window

I’d look up into the azure sky

The scent of fresh grass is heaven

The bright sun smiles down upon earth

In the distance little brown sparrows dot the canvas

The great outdoors is picture perfect

 

I’d delight in speaking and writing

And humming a cheery tune

Sing praises of the landscape and horizon

And satellite that is the moon

My interests range far and wide

But my intelligences these few

I’m a linguist, musician and naturalist too
