Between the Changes of Nature (poem)

Between the Changes of Nature

Between the rain and the sun, between the wet and the dry,
So the land is refreshed under a cloudy or clear sky.
Each change brings life to the plants and creatures living below,
Without one or the other, this green world we would not know.

Between winter and summer, nature begins to prepare,
Spreading out its leaves to welcome the warming sun up there.
Between spring and autumn, nature brings flowers for the bees,
Green leaves for the creatures grazing on the land and the trees.

Between summer and winter, nature produces its crop,
When animals gather their food, and fruit from the trees drop.
Between autumn and spring, nature retreats and shuts the door,
Abandoning autumn’s splendour until spring knocks once more.

Between the changes of nature, life on earth finds its way,
Bringing a promise of tomorrow, upon each new day.
All the seasons are needed, plus the changes in weather,
Between them, the wonders of life on earth come together.

I Make Mistakes (poem)

I Make Mistakes

I make mistakes, but then so do we all,
There will be times when we stumble and fall.
There will be times when we say the wrong thing,
And face the anger that those words may bring.
But there will be times when we get it right,
Bring to their faces a look of delight.
Which one today will bring, we may not know,
All we can do is just give it a go.
All we can do in life is try our best,
And when it is done, sit down for a rest.

Mistakes can be teachers, showing us more,
A better understanding than before.
The lessons we learn can help make us strong.
Remembering them, before we go wrong.
Learn to hold back when things go the wrong way,
Or to step forward, if it helps today.
If a mistake is too big to repair,
Then pick up the wisdom found left in there.
Whatever we learn can help tomorrow,
There will be a way to heal the sorrow.
