Poem
I had some questions I wanted to ask nature on my morning walk the other day… I figured, being nature, she’d have quite a lot to say. I asked her about the moon and stars that sprinkle the sky at night… why were they created and what makes them shine so bright. Then up in the sky…from the heavens…somewhere overhead… her answer floated down to me…”Love” was all she said. I asked her about the trees. How can something that starts from an acorn or seed so small… grow into something so magnificent…so majestic…so beautiful…so tall. Again from up in the heavens…somewhere overhead… her answer floated down to me…”Love” was all she said. I asked her about the ocean…from atop her surface to her deepest depths below… where does she draw her strength and what makes her tides to ebb and flow. For the third time from the heavens…somewhere overhead… her answer floated down to me…”Love” was all she said. I continued asking questions…and “Love” was the only answer I ever heard… I was beginning to wonder if nature’s vocabulary was limited to that one word. But what if that one word is the answer… what if that is her explanation… her message…her creed… what if she’s trying to tell us…love is all we need. What if this is the only message she’ll float to us…down from the heavens above… until we show her we all understand what she means when she says ‘Love’. I imagine once we truly understand her message…nature will celebrate the day… and only when we understand love…will she have more to say.
