Alive!

The sun rises and falls,
The moon's glow cools the sky.
The birds fly and sing,
Dogs bark, cats mew;
They're alive!

The flowers bloom and fade,
The tree naked, then bursts into life.
The rivers flow fast, then trickle,
The mountains bursting with life, then snow-capped.
They're alive!

Babies sleeping, howling, cooing,
Toddlers chatting and playing.
School children laughing, then shouting,
Teens sulking and aimless.
They're alive!

The sun touches my skin,
The moon soothes my sleep.
Nature's sights and sounds engulf me,
Youth around me all the time.
I'm alive!
