Have you ever seen the sun set upon the sea,
The migrating birds fly in formation proud?
Have you ever seen the mighty forest
and heard the birds sing clear and loud?
Have you seen the flowers in the meadows and the field
that provide the nectar for the bee?
That gives the honey in the hive hanging from the tree.
Have you seen the dolphins race across the ocean wave,
the mighty whales that swim the oceans strong and brave?
A breathless sight of beauty you will ever see
If we will just allow them to live and to be.
