Do You Ever Stop?

Do you ever stop and listen to the soft and gentle breeze?

It’s kind of rather magical, carrying stories through the leaves.

Do you ever wonder where the wind has been and gone?

Did it come across great oceans, and did it take long?

If you listen carefully and look up in the sky,

you may hear an eagle sing as it's flying by.

Or maybe there will be a tale of dogs all running wild;

barking back and forth all day, having fun in style.

Life can be real busy, too busy on some days.

One way to get your balance back is to lean into the sway.

'Cause nature knows its limits, for it is wise, free, and true.

And is always willing to teach us – especially someone like you!
