Prose – The Stars Waltz – Kayla Gamm

Paradise The Natural

Tranquil waters, the sun shining up high Losing myself in the beauty of day Blue and green hues reflected in the sky Something about the ambiance makes me stay

The Everglades is sanctuary A place where all wildlife lives and can thrive Tall, strong, everlasting sable palm tree Heron drinking in the water, alive

We need to work to save this paradise This natural wonder where we all live If we could do it together, it’s nice We will only get as much as we give

The natural world is both theirs and ours So we continue to spend nights under stars
