Admiration For the Lucky Few

I surreptitiously envy those who find the opportunity to roam freely in glades within woods and over verdant prismic hills under open blue sky's soaking up and embracing natures flowers and fauna as they are pollinated by insects abounding. I marvel at those who can sit and spend time by rivers flowing graciously along a course bordered by statuesque trees and have the time to climb hills and mountain peaks to sit and watch meditatively over sweeping landscapes down below watching birds fly by and swooping down low weaving in the clear crisp air of the various seasons just to sit and think of nothing but breathing. How I covert those who  can sit on headland rocks and glorify in watching the power of the sea the ebb and flow, the waves so mighty crashing roaring on to the beach with it's foamy spume and leaving in it's wake seaweed covered sand watching the tiny stones roll up and down the shore then as the day begins to reach it's natural ending sit in wonder as the sun sets and the sky turns hues of differing colours of orange, pinks, purples and reds as if being painted by an artist creating a masterpiece with natures brushes on a sublime canvas only to see it fade and be replaced by shining sparkling stars and a luminescent moon set against an ebony back drop it makes my heart and soul yearn and ache to stop and watch all of that nature has to offer those with time to sit and view with time to spend with nothing else to do but mindfully sit and breathe it all in while infusing creation within their being I truly am in awe of those can sit and experience everything that nature and creation can do.
