Happiness in Nature
The spring sun is shining down on the world,
she is watching her children leap.
The children of nature, of life, of beauty,
Her cows, her hens, her sheep.
The farmer wakes up one sunny day,
And he walks down to the farm,
Not expecting baby lambs
To be lying in the barn
Not just farms are getting news
as many more have come,
for lurking in your garden hedge
may be a hoglet mum.
As spring melts into summer,
All the animals have grown
The trees have bloomed their flowers
The babies of their own.
The heat is rising rapidly
we’re all longing for some rain
So, when the downpour comes around
We’re dancing round again.
Autumn comes; so does a chill,
It’s time for hats and gloves,
The time for the trees to go to sleep
(this time, they really love)!
The forest children collecting food
For their long slumber too
They settle down in a nice cosy hole
And slink back out of view
As autumn shifts into longer nights
The temperature drops down low,
It’s colder than it ever was
It might just even snow.
The jolly time of year has come,
And there’s magic in the air
There’s something left for everyone,
everything everywhere.
The cycle comes back round again
and spring is starting now
That is happiness in nature
and it should give a bow.
