The Nature Hymn
by Warren Brown
For every tree that does fall
God does a human life recall,
For every leaf that does decay
A human life ends its saddened day.
For every sapling that meets the sun
God creates a human daughter or son,
For every tree that is spared
God's love is freely spread and shared.
For every forest that is conserved
The human race will be longer preserved,
For every person who loves nature
The human race will evolve in stature.
As all creatures rejoice
And sing the Nature Hymn,
We are left with no choice
But, sing Praises to Him.

Seed of Destiny
by Warren Brown
Darkness envelops the lonely
Seed
As it is softly tucked into
Earth,
From where it gets its watery
Feed
Till it later meets the sun in
Mirth.
The little shoot continues to
Grow
Until it develops in
Size,
To spread its branches in a grand
Show
As its foliage catch our
Eyes.
As every seed becomes a Tree
Human life has a new Destiny.
