Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

It's a beautiful thing
I was not happy We go outside and it's right there
But we do not seem to notice it
with the rain With trees growing all around us
until my eye caught Birds soaring in the air
five wets leaves- Flowers of many colours with sweet scents
Animals resting in the shade
a mysterious Water flowing through rivers, lakes, seas, and oceans
autumn Fish swimming in the flowing water
watercolor gift Forests growing high into the sky
We all must try to keep it so
here It's beautiful thing
on this broken road. Nature.
