Look carefully now and you will see
The flower blossoming in the sunlight's rays
The egg hatch a bird high up in a tree.
Listen carefully now and you will hear
The rippling of the meadows brook
The weeping of the great willow tree.
Touch carefully now and you will feel
The silkiness of the rose's petal
The softness of the squirrel's coat.
Taste carefully now and you will taste
The nectar of the vineyard's wine
The sweetness of the apple tree's fruit.
Breath carefully now and you will smell
The freshness of the morning dew
The pine scent smell of the evergreen's trees.
Look, listen, touch, taste and smell
All of nature that's all around you.
