MAYFLY SONG
©Gary Bowman Sitting on a stump, overlooking the pond, Reflecting the beauty, as new day dawns Passing thought comes my way How would I live, If I had one day? No future, No fears, No past, No tears No rich, No poor, No wealth, No treasures store Breaking the surface of liquid glass Mayflies emerge, and swarm en masse, Threadlike tails, and lacy wings One day to see what life will bring A life that’s rich in every way, Sunny hours on summer’s day One sunrise, One sunset A simple life, Is what you get Sitting on a stump, overlooking the pond, Reflecting the beauty, as new day dawns |
