The water glistened like a jewel
Reflecting the blue sky above
And the quiet wind was cool
As it lifted the dove
Way up into the sky
Where it was free to fly
It sang of distant shores
I have never seen before
Who knew if I would see
All that the dove had
As he flew o’er the sea
To a distant land
I walked the golden sand
And lifted a pale hand
Towards the silver streaked sky
And watched the dove fly
The trees whistled lightly,
Telling their old tales
The waves crashed softly,
And I watched all the whales
Jump and sing together
And I watched a lone feather
Float down to the Earth
Showing it’s true worth
You see,
The beauty of the Earth
Cannot have a price,
It has no tangible worth
DON’T make me say it twice
A day that is sunny,
Cannot be bought with money
And a quiet day on the shore
Can’t be found in a store
And so as
The water glistened like a jewel
Reflecting the blue sky above
And the quiet wind was cool
As it lifted the dove
Way up into the sky
Where it was free to fly
It sang of distant shores
I have never seen before
