Look around. Let Nature nurture your Soul. I record images I sense and share them here.
NURTURE your NATURE

For my blog "Nurture your Nature"


Nature can nurture our writing, can nurture our soul. What is the language of Nature? And how do we learn it?

We look at the natural wonders around us and do not see them, hear, taste nor smell them. They do not touch us anymore than we dare touch them. And then we wonder why we feel so dead. To breathe in and live like a child again opens the Land of Wonderment. It's still there after all these years.

White rosebuds

Why snip white rosebuds
to send my newborn grandson
on his heavenly journey?

These flowers' fragrance:
the memory* I'll hold on to
long after his body's** dust.

© Kåre Enga [177.123] (6.juli.2020)

*2 syllables not 3.
**contraction of 'body is'

This is in my dialect; to be read out loud.

Footnotes
1  Mondo poems are often very brief collaborative affairs that present a question and answer in the style of trying to glean meaning from nature. Mondos can be as short as a one-liner or as long as two 5-7-7 syllable stanzas (the first stanza presenting the question; the second the answer).
