Take a Bow

Serenity lingers along the rivers bend

cascading water runs down to the edge

The brown bears meet to bare their cubs

a long awaited spring has come

In the midst of the wild you'll hear it all

as a wolf's cry echo's out the call

No need for danger says the mother cub

he is watching over us with all his love

. . .

The body listens as the patient is told

that his heart is faintly beginning to fold

He needs to begin a solid regimen

of healthy living, if he wants to live

So begins the process of his healing

his body takes over and does it for him

Astonishing is this miracle he has created

. . .

I am sure that his reasoning was meant to be

for it all fits so perfectly

Stand back and look at the world from afar

you'll see what I mean, I know I'm not wrong

We are all a part of a greater cause

winning some wars is no reason for applause
Being created and inventing our futures

is a far greater reason to give adulations

. . .

Take a bow, my lord

this comes from the heart

Thank you for being so incredibly smart
