Walking in the woods, was I

All nature's beauty seemed to apply

Trees so great and green

Birds of color hiding unseen

Deer and rabbit everywhere

A moose, I spied over there

With antlers high in the air

Teaching a young one, to beware

Walking in the woods, was I

With all of nature passing by

A squirrel squirreling for nuts

Looking in and out of hidden ruts

One lone silver gray wolf

Standing proud and aloof

All this under nature's roof

Walking in the woods, was I

When a great bear, caught my eye

Digging in a tree, for honey to eat

Hoping soon, to have a great treat

Walking in the woods, was I

Awe struck and given to sigh

A world, where God be

With all such things. for me to see

With fervent prayer, I wondered why

Walking in the woods, was I
