The Joys of Nature
The lions and tigers roar the elephants rumble passing by me,I stood on the upper branches of the tree,
thrown backwards and forwards with vibrancy,
Looking again, I saw zebras dashing by,
with such wonderful stripes,
Artistically providing unison for the almost
white sand on the banks of that rushing river.
Nothing so melodious, than to hear those whistling birds,
The most wonderful variety of musical notes I've ever heard,
Trying to remember when I enjoyed an interaction with nature like this,
Such a soul warming experience in the depths of natural bliss.
Very lovely deers also sped by,
as I inhaled deeply with satisfaction and tried,
Comprehending how generous nature was to me,
Awakening my senses to this reality.
I travelled for miles again and saw primates,
wild ducks and horses,
Containing myself and shouting in responses
that echoed above this botanical canopy.
So delighted to hear the birds again sang, this time with unison,
All notes echoed off the trees, and the curious bison,
No doubt he's enjoying these sounds of tranquility,
loosening all body tensions, slipping the heart and mind in serenity,
Bearing the mind and sould to recieve,
An interaction no one can give.
Loosing one's self in nature's calm
What satisfaction, what lovely charm,
The beauty of this wild, but lovely and colorful picture,
That are interchangably the voice and soul of mother nature,
Not at all self created and self preserved,
The Master Artist and Creator did it, so let His will be served.
And as I reached the beachfront and heard the bustling waves,
I dived in the glossy transparent waters of this paradise,
The majestic and splashing, powerful waves,
Threw large bodies of waters in the beached caves,
And the frothed water, re-emerged in reverse,
My mouth watered with saliva that quenced my thirst.
I drank of the fresh water springs of paradise,
And the cool coconut water of the trees,
That swung to and fro in the the whistling breeze.
I reluctantly began my trip home,
not wanting to seperate form the peace
and tranquility of paradise.
This was my first deep interaction,
With the peace, love and tranquility of Nature.
