In a garden green and bright,
Dandelions sway in the light.
Woods nearby with trees so tall,
Their branches wiggly, they seem to crawl.

In the meadow, a water lily blooms,
Its petals soft, like fluffy plumes.
A gopher pops up from the ground,
Looking for shoots to nibble down.

Buds on trees, bulbs in the ground,
Soon new life will be found.
By the pond, we stop to stare,
At fish swimming without a care.

So explore the world around,
New wonders are waiting to be found.
In the garden, meadow, and woods,
Nature's beauty always does us good.
