Nature

This one was another assignment in high school (9th grade). We had to write about nature. This one sounds best if read out loud and in one breath...


Nature

Birds and trees and bees and flowers,
Grass and leaves and April showers,
Cats and dogs and squirrels and eagles,
Oceans and fish and crabs and seagulls,
Lizards and insects and turtles and snakes,
Rivers and streams and ponds and lakes,
Mice and gophers and big ol’ rats,
Turkeys and groundhogs and flying bats,
Wild fruits and plants and little tomaters,
Bugs and beetles and big ol’ gators,
These things and animals and little creatures,
Put them together and we have Nature.
