Nature

To see a beautiful butterfly in flight
fluttering its wafer-thin wings
is akin to watching an angel fly
among a green garden bright. . .

To see a velvet rose, wet with the morning dew
tilting its luxurious face towards the sun
breathing in light and changing it to chlorophyll
is a glorious sight to see . . .

Or a little fawn nibbling upon a field of grass
bending its gentle brow towards the blades
in its daily foray into Nature
to survive yet another dawn . . .

To see a blue-green dolphin glide
and jump above the sea
is to witness the movement of a being
at play in life

and ‘tis a spectacular scene to behold . . .

All of Nature is a miracle
a wonder of an exquisite order
the skies, the creatures, the seas,
the timbers
all were meant to be . . .


Nature is a most wondrous being
it’s beauty and myst’ry are oft’told
and from the depths of the sea
to the highest peaks
‘tis a gift full of splendour.
