The Conversation of Nature

This poem reflects on how nature speaks to us through its many wonders.

The soft melodies echoed along the treeline
Tree limbs swayed gently in the steady breeze
A solemn oasis for the bold and free
My ears caught remnants of an unknown chorus
That was the song of the birds

Deer pranced along the untouched dew
My eyes stunned by the beauty of a sunrise
The lake glistened with a golden glow
Its reflection pierced my sleepy eyes
That was the spectacle of the sun

Mellow ripples materialized from a lonesome duck
Its silky feathers glided gracefully
My feet dangled into the icy water
The ripples grew ceaselessly
That was dialogue of the water

Vibrant leaves floated down from a towering oak
Each branch portrayed a new story
Its wisdom echoed amongst each root
Every scar showed resilience through the storms
That was the might of the tree

Nature speaks when we listen
It will never tell us a lie
I trust what it gives me
All of life was made unique
So let’s answer when it calls to us
