Cycle of life


Through mountain valleys,
along rivers and streams,
beneath towering trees,
amidst nature's glory,
a tiger roams the earth,
hunting for its prey;
the cycle of life.

In emerald meadows,
bathed in sunshine,
through the tall green grass,
amongst blooming wildflowers,
a rabbit hops along,
unaware of its plight;
the cycle of life.

Over scorching deserts,
throughout deep blue skies,
across ribbons of clouds,
within endless boundaries,
a vulture flies in circles,
waiting for its meal to die;
the cycle of life.

Through the cracked sand,
amidst scorpion fields,
beneath a lone tree,
in the burning heat,
a lion-cub trudges onward,
fighting for its life;
the cycle of life.

High in the treetops,
upon a rocky cliff,
in a strongly built nest,
overlooking a soft cascade,
an eagle patiently waits
for her eggs to hatch;
the cycle of life.

In an open field,
beneath sparkling stars,
along a grassy trail,
by the cover of night,
a deer freely grazes,
eating his fill;
the cycle of life.

Across the oceans,
in forests of rain,
amidst budding leaves,
from tree to tree,
birds sing joyfully,
greeting the new day;
the cycle of life.

Upon snow-capped mountains,
in the bitter cold winds,
through a powerful blizzard,
under thick hazy clouds,
a polar bear fights another,
protecting her cubs;
the cycle of life.

In a hospital room,
on the fourth floor,
surrounded by white walls,
in the presence of loved ones,
a newborn baby cries
for the very first time;
the cycle of life.

Existing in nature,
of life and death,
sorrow and joy,
without one or the other
the cycle would be incomplete
and out of balance;
the cycle of life.

In nature exists life,
in life exists nature,
miracles survive
and treasures are found,
within darkness and light,
it is nature's cycle,
the cycle of life.
