Gather Amongst The Wooded Forest

Gather amongst the wooded forest
Trees that grow, moss that clings
The smell of dewy earth doth rise
Another wondrous day it brings

Birds of many colors flutter by
Singing joyful songs to Mother Earth
Twigs and down will make their nests
With the dawn brings a new birth

A newborn fawn gathers its strength
Legs that wobble soon grow steady
Running circles around his mother
With danger lurking, she is ready

Frogs croak with their raspy voice
Jumping and leaping from pad to pad
Water droplets pinging here and there
In the water plays the river shad

Gather amongst the wooded forest
See what enjoyment it will bring
To see, to smell, to touch it all
With a new day, the forest sings
