If you lift your eyes from your mobile screen,
There are many cool things which may well be seen.
I've given it some thought and have compiled a list
Of random things which I think you may miss:
Like a beautiful rainbow way up high,
Or a hot air balloon floating on by;
Poppies dancing in the soft summer breeze,
Or clusters of blossom decorating the trees.
A fiery sunset, a shooting star,
A stretch limousine, an old vintage car.
A hedgehog snuffling, a dolphin leaping,
Butterflies dancing, a sly red fox creeping.
Swallows swooping far over your head;
A robin in a tree with his breast of stunning red.
A kingfisher diving for its unsuspecting prey;
The breath-taking view across a sandy bay;
A church or castle, three hundred years old;
The beauty of snowflakes when the weather turns cold.
Spring lambs frolicking in open green fields;
The rotating sails of a working windmill.
A steam locomotive with its whistle a-blowing;
A sparkling stream, full of life, ever flowing.
If you keep your eyes glued to your screen,
These things, by you, will never be seen.
