Little shafts of sunlight
Merrily dappled the green ground,
Shining through the apple branches
Sprinkling shady comfort all around.
The warm breeze softly sighed
Breathing over the hard boulders,
Sending tendrils of unbound hair
Tickling gently over bare shoulders.
Ah, the wonderful peace-
Blue sky stretched, birds floated and wheeled,
The soothing, smoothing peace of it
Imparted strength, and blessedly, healed
