The leaves on the branches sing softly in the breeze
The shadows dance on the grass
The sunlight hits everything with a shining glow
The butterflies model their jewels for everyone to see
While the grass reaches up towards the sky
The water hums a sweet lullaby
Until the wind catches the moment
and moves it along
Then the sun sets, saying goodnight
That's when it all begins
The stars, swinging in time
The footsteps of animals,
gently wandering to and fro
The moon suddenly awakens to say hello,
and all to soon, goodbye
And the day comes to life once again
