The clouds in shapeless form 
Drift across a sky of blue 
The birds colourful and warm 
Across the sky fly to 
While on the ground 
Under a warm sensitive sun 
Animals scamper around 
Hunting food and having fun 
 
Yet all this beauty 
Is not uncommon at all 
If we seek tranquillity 
And peace of mind for all 
All we have to do 
Is concentrate on things 
That nature has to give 
Within this world where we live
