Nature's Orchestra.

Goldfinch60



Walking through the wood,

The gentle sound of the breeze

Rustles the leaves,

The opening bars of the concert.

The staccato sound of beaks on trees

Drumming holes for homes,

Beating the time

As the pigeons coo in harmony.

The deep roar of deer

Singing the bass line,

Supporting the sound.

Above it all comes the duet

Of blackbird with robin,

Completing the sounds,

That make up

Natures Orchestra.

      A wonderful tribute to nature's music my friend - and I second your thoughts, that no better orchestra exists .

          ANGELA HERE (Enjoying Saturday !) Coffee Morning @ Church Later with BRIAN. Love the Harp we have Welsh Friends who are very competant Harpists - The Sound of Paradise ! At Welsh Weddings we have a gentle Harp Recital throughout the Breakfast - Awsome !
          A strange thing about the Sounds of Nature. To BRIAN & I (who have a musicians ear) they are always harmonius ~ Natures Tuning. When we take out Youth Group (11 - 18) on Nature Walks or Camping we forbid the use of Stereo Headphones so they can listen to the *Natural Noises of the Day & Night* Thanks for sharing a Lovely Poem - AMEN !

          Blessings & Peace to You & Yours
          Love ANGELA & BRIAN 💛💛💛

            So many people these days walk through natures environment with earplugs in listening to other things - it is such a shame.

            To be in harmony with nature in that environment is priceless. Wonderful contrast to our contemporary 'sophisticated' lives.
