DANCING WITH ANGELS

Looking out the window, seeing the rays of sun
Shining down on the Earth,
Warming us with its love,
Causing new growth, changes of season.

With each raindrop that falls
The Earth is nourished
Drinking the water of life,
Becoming stronger, growing with love.

Listen to the wind soaring through the trees,
It has the strength to move mountains.
Leaves dance down to the Earth
Each a different color, a different beauty.

Soon it becomes cold, and the rain turns to snow.
Snowflakes dance down to the Earth
Blanketing each seed, protecting the Earth
From nature’s harsh cold.

At night, when all seems dark,
The moon’s light will guide us.
The Earth is watched from far above,
Stars glimmering, dancing with light.

Like changes in season the tides turn over.
It’s the love of angels, reaching down upon the Earth,
Dancing for us, if we just stop for a moment
And look out the window of life.
