Spring time prayer
Thursday, May 1st, 2008
For flowers that bloom about our feet,
For tender grass, so fresh, so sweet,
For song of bird, and hum of bee,
For all things fair we hear or see,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!
For blue of stream and blue of sky,
For pleasant shade of branches high,
For fragrant air and cooling breeze,
For beauty of the blooming trees,
Father in heaven, we thank Thee!
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

I guess Emerson himself would have approved this photo to go with his words!
Very nice.
