A rainbow at the end of a storm, <br />A lawn covered with morning dew, <br />A murmur of the wind in the forest, <br />A breath-taking ocean view, <br />A downy cloud in the azure sky, <br />A flock of birds in flight, <br />A call of a wood thrush at dawn, <br />A hooting owl in the middle of night, <br />A light from the first evening star, <br />A soft patter of an early Spring rain, <br />A rustle of corn leaves in the wind, <br />A call of the mourning dove from the lane, <br />A variety of roses in full bloom, <br />A song of the surf on the sandy shore, <br />A hum of bees on a clover field, <br />A deafening sound of a waterfall's roar, <br />A song from the first robin in Spring, <br />A sheltering arm of a great elm tree, <br />A rippling sound of a babbling stream, <br />A deer in a woodland frisky and free.<br /><br />Joseph T.
