Unheard Melodies

OH, listen my dear,
the wind is playing you a magnificent tune
and the sky is singing you a song
the birds in the trees are chirping merrily
and wondering why you're not singing along?

OH, listen my dear,
the trees are dancing gently in the breeze
and the foxtails are playing along
the wild wild geese are making shapes in the clouds
wondering why your not joining their throng?

OH, listen my dear,
the brook is running with a crisp soft sound
and the fish are swimming with ease
the world itself seems to be alive with song
now will you just open your ears, please?
