A Silent Thought

A little girl sat silently
beneath a tree of green
she marveled the mystery
of all the wonderous things

she watched the gentle grass
as it blew to and fro
she saw a golden butterfly
put on a joyous show

she saw the raindrops
as they came slowly down
upon the flowers it did fall
to spread a melodic sound

she watched as the sun
faded behind the hill
in a silent thought
she knew the world was still
