A Bench
A bench to sit and contemplate
Memories sweet and rare
A place where I can mediate
Close my eyes, or stare
At lively creatures great and small
A canopy of green
Oaks and maples, pines so tall
Sunlight through the leaves
Chipmunks scurry, cardinals say
That they are pretty too
How is it that today
I have this perfect view?
Sometimes life just offers gold
And serves it with delight
We can only breathe it in
Grateful for the sight
Moments filled with majesty
Colorful and fair
Makes me smile and warms my heart
Oh to linger there
Beneath the sky with billowed clouds
Canvasses so blue
There is nothing quite so right,
So beautiful, so true
Think I'll sit and stay awhile
Hear the crickets play
Another earthy symphony
In this perfect place
Comments
"Every song that I write comes from my own personal experience. i believe the role of an artist is to interpret reality through a system of beliefs and a long-term seeking of truth, in your own life and in the world at large." Dan Folgelberg
