When I go outside
I see many things
Plants and animals
Pretty birds that sing
There are rocks to view
Each with a history
Pebbles and stones
How did they come to be?
There are trees too
Some that grow high
Flowers are much lower
To see them , oh my!
The grass grows thick
It grows very good
Crawling with insects
Searching for food
The random sticks
That fell from the trees
Some are useful
For shelter, if you need
Plants are helpful
They're very medicinal
They'll cure your illness
Make you feel well
Other plants beware
They can make you itch
Ones like poison ivy
Some that make you twitch
But all these things
Mother nature made
We must protect them
To not let them fade
