For a moment, astonished, he sat without words as well as still;
The view below was among outright picturesque elegance.
A soft wind pressed a couple of wispy clouds throughout the blue sky.
The aroma of glowing morning flowers was
Almost everywhere existing, he inhaled it deeply.

As he watched the far-off mountain-tops capture the very first bright beam of lights of the Rising Sun.
He was at tranquility and delighted as he whistled and played his harmonica,
His sandals slapping against the ground.
The winds flowed through his unkempt shoulder length white hair,
Locks as well as curls blowing around his face in the mild breeze.
He loaded his lungs deeply with the on-rush of surroundings;
Wildflowers, hills, trees ... familiar with nature's link, he really felt to life
Suddenly distant he happened to see a little girl by the wayside,
She looked sad as well as was sobbing loudly.

His heart was deeply moved.
As he approached her he asked, in a soft mild voice:
" Little girl, why are you weeping? It is such an intense as well as lovely day."
The sobbing child stopped briefly, looked up, as well as replied;

" He was my buddy," she told him, cleaning her eyes.
The old man stated "Don't worry; I will certainly assist you to locate him."
The little woman's eyes brightened. She hurried to the old man,
Providing him a huge relieved bear hug.

They strolled and also walked as they called out the name "Angel.".

To the little girl, and she became quiet with marvel.

He picked up a moment to contemplate a huge eco-friendly needled tree.
He stated to her, "See that tree? Do you recognize the name of it?".

The old man continuouslied define the tree carefully.
As he eyed it inside out, up and down, down as well as up ...
" Look at this tree," the old man started, "see exactly how she stands so straight, solid and also still,.
Indulging in the warmth of the sunlight and billowing freely in the air?".
See just how her want needles happily dance and also swirl in the straying breeze.
While her branches swim, guide, and scrape away at the skies?".
" She is cherishing a treasured moment of pleasant serenity,.
Step back as well as see exactly how the extent of her elegance stretches against the sky!".
The old man explained carefully how this tree secures its environment.
Versus any type of supposed risk in a manner so motherly.
As her branches swoop down, coddle and touch the ground in a loving way.
Still no feedback from the shed dog ...
They continuouslied stroll as the old man talked about.
The growing blossoms with all their colorful elegance,.
The sweetness of the tunes of birds, humming and also chirping.
Swallows trembling by as they please, as well as most of all,.
The means nature dresses up easily, trying on vibrant autumn leaves.
Like wearing a dress for a round, or slipping on spring leaves like a new bathing suit.
At that moment the little woman looked attentively at a tall pine tree,.
Thoroughly thinking about the old man's words.
She raised one of its branches and also saw her puppy dog soundly resting,.
She blurted a shout ... "Angel ..." and when the canine awoke he started to bark,.
Excited, jumping with delight and also licking her face.
The little girl resorted to say thanks to the old man yet he had actually gone away.
