and the birds
up there
to please
be still
and stay aware.
In an unguarded moment
our tranquility
could be at stake
as Mother Nature's fragile heart
is so easy
to break.
Hush little babies
and remain
close by.
Your life should be sacred
but someone
could deny
your very existence
in this forest
of enchanted peace.
Let God smile upon us
and His love
never cease.
Your heart beats rapidly
and so does
mine.
by praying this tension passes
and everything
will be fine.
We must keep
on a silent vigil
as one will never know
if this stranger
who walks among us
is a friend or a foe?
Then the rabbit and the squirrel
took a big sigh
of relief
and the white dove
up above
also shared that belief.
The man we all know
as Jesus
sat silently on the ground
giving thanks
to all God's creatures
and to the heaven that He found.
