Where can you find the lyrics to And Nature Smiled by Allen Koepke?

Answer 1

On the hillside grew a lovely rose

A beauty to behold

The sun and rain did bless the rose

And nature smiled

It was told

Proud was the rose in the midst of widow-hood

Its fragrance pure as finest gold

All creation understood

And bowed as its petals would unfold

Soon the weeds did gather 'round the rose

"Share with us your beauty"

They asked in coyre-pose

"Give us one each petal

For then we all will be

Beautiful and worthy

To stand with dignity"

"Run, run

Run from the horse-tail

Run, run away"

Was the cry of the loon

"Stay, stay, stay"

Cried the thorn tree

"Listen to your heart

Listen to your heart"

Came a plea from the moon

Then a stillness settled on the land

The rose, in all her wisdom

Stretched out a gentle hand

And touched each one around her

None was to be denied

She knew the secret of their beauty came from deep inside

"Each of you is a part of a plan from above

You give life to others

There is no greater love

Be strong in one another

And then you all will see

You don't need any petals

You have your dignity"

On a hillside grew a lovely rose

A friend amid the wild

The sun and rain did bless the rose

And nature smiled

And nature smiled
