Opening Cardboard Flaps
  Blossoms blooming all throughout
  Bringing brilliant rain around
  From the heavens onto the earth
  Critters crawling all about
  Climbing clinging dew, icebound   
  Spring fully wrapped within its mirth
  But it won't last for too long
  Three, two, one, oh look it's gone
  It seems these wonderful things are too wonderful to believe
  Listen…   
  Is the wind transmitting?
  Closely…
  Is my message reaching?
  To the ears of those who reside in small boxes
  Blindly…   
  Viewing without a care
  Walking…
  Ignoring the life everywhere
  It’s saddening that they refuse to see the world…
  out there    
  Please see that there's so little time remaining ?
  Have you done what should've been in living?
  There’s a whole world waiting for you to do... something amazing
  Open your eyes and face the right way
  Don’t waste your life away
  open the cardboard flaps to the light
  looking around you could change…your life
