Life Is
Tender is a woman's breast
as her babe feeds while she rests.
Gentle are the trees that sway
underneath a sky of gray.
Morning glories, beauty rare,
breathe the fresh and mountain air.
Life is gladness, life is sorrow,
life is planning for tomorrow.
Quiet is the moonlit night
as heaven's stars twinkle bright.
Softness is the wind that blows
through the grains of wild meadows.
Streams flow onward searching for
other distant land or shore.
Life is watching children play,
growing up from day to day.
Freshness is the smell of rain
landing lightly on the plain.
Beauty is a rainbow high
stretching over our endless sky.
Life is laughter, life is tears,
life is thoughts of yesteryears.
Life is living, life is dreams,
life is what the future brings.
