Not Enough..

It used to be enough to watch the white clouds in the sky..
To bring a smile to a tired face..

It used to be enough to listen to the sound of the waterfalls..
To bring peace to a tired heart..

It used to be enough to feel the dew on the wet grass..
To bring hope to a tired soul..

But not now..
When the white clouds are often grey from smoke..
And the waterfalls are becoming too small to make a sound..
And the dew is disappearing too fast to be felt..

It is not enough to watch the white clouds in the sky..
Or to listen to the sound of the waterfall..
Or to feel the dew on the wet grass..
Without realising that now, it is our time to bring them a smile, a peace and a hope..
