As The Children Play

A morning spent by the river

 

As the children play

 

As the children play

The morning comes awake

The sun comes peering through the mist

To herald in day break

I hear the call of a sleepy duck

As he waddles up to me

Two ravens fly above my head

Their lonesome calls enthralling me.

 

There’s a feeling deep within my soul

As I watch the river flowing

The mood in me spells harmony

And it gets my heart to glowing

In the silence, echo’s of the truth

They fill the morning air

As the breath of mystic morning comes

To leave my soul quite bare.

 

The kookaburras crazy laugh

Does break on through the morn

As more waddling ducks arrive

To laze upon the lawn

And all around day comes alive

With the sounds of, tiny birds

As I watch little fairy wrens

Such joy in me is stirred.
