I Stand In Awe of Nature

The power and beauty of Nature fill my heart, Sometimes, gazing at a mountain's grandeur make the tears spill, Thunder and lightning at eventide, give me a thrill, Yes, I stand in awe of Nature. A bird's sleepy chirp at twilight makes me take notice As I think of the hard life they lead, but still they're happy, The clear, blue water of a lake gives me a glow, Yes, I stand in awe of Nature. Tornadoes, hurricanes, and earthquakes all speak of Her power-- Then I watch a horse trotting around a track, and I think "What raw power and yet what beauty we live with" Yes, I stand in awe of Nature. If you ever watch a sunset over Earth's waters, Or listen to a tree whispering to another, You can't help but feel the power And the love of our planet, And, like me, you will stand in awe of Nature.
