Birds chirp, squirrels bark,

Frogs croak in our little park.

Bees buzz about their job,

From petal to petal nectar they rob.

Machines drone mid day so fair,

Smell of fresh cut grass permeates the air.

'Neath the shade of a beautiful Magnolia tree,

Hands clasped, hearts full of glee.

You feel a soft gentle spring breeze,

Watch nature, hardly dare to breathe.

A squirrel stops feet away,

Beauty of the earth shared today.

He looks this way, senses our stare,

Poised to flee to his arboreal lair.

Our love deepened by moments frozen in time,

As we watch his glories, nature sublime.

We revel in the beauty, God's glory displayed,

As we write our own story along life's parade.

Live for these moments committed to our memory,

A lifetime of love for you and for me.
