petals from the trees in spring
pink and white and purpling
the grass below where one by one
drifting down they now become
petals on the earth which blow
all around like winter's snow
by the wind whose every puff
moves them on with just enough
power from the Sun to earth
warming air and giving birth
to unseen streams which move and flow
all around both fast and slow
molecules of water rise
from below up to the skies
forming drops then falling down
giving life to all around
flowing back down to the sea
petals drifting lazily
as they tumble and they rush
there is nowhere life's so lush
as each place in which we find
the true beauty of the mind
which we feel within the heart
when we know we're all a part
when we only want to be
who we are, to give freely
to get back, return again
we are all like drops of rain
in unseen streams which move and flow
all around both fast and slow
we rise up then we fall down
sharing life with all around
