The Sounds of Nature

 The birds are a chorus in my head 

 The tall trees rustle in the cold breeze

 A small fox snarls as it rips meat off its prey

 And the waves burst onto the shore

  Possum claws screech as they slide down a tree

  An owl declares it's ready to hunt

  Snakes hiss as they approach

  While the wolves howl as day turns to night

  White snow makes a racket as it falls

  A school of fish glides through the water

  Long green grass sways gently in the evening breeze

  Soft twitching of the spiders' feet as they weave a piece of art

  The first drop of rain brings ovation from all

  Kangaroos bound through the burnt bush

  A kookaburra cackles as it sits on a nearby branch

  Bees delight as they fly to their hive

  A magpie swoops and protects its babies

  The bats squawk echos through the cave

  Sugar-gliders soar from tree to tree

  I love the sounds of nature
