Human Nature Contest

HUMAN NATURE CONTEST

NATURE AND HUMANITY

There is no beauty like the waterfall
Gushing from the high rock face
Showering its crystal gems in spangles
That the girls would see as your eyes call
To the green lush growth as it dangles
That you are kind and with a trace,
A dash of diffused strength ,your all.

Beneath the water is a ledge
Where you can stand and wonder
At the splish and splash of water
As your toes touch the edge
You are the morning’s daughter
As you are rightly torn asunder
With hope and joy and sprouting sedge

The clouds roll above as a balmy cushion
Sprays gently on the upturned faces
All the rushing waters roar
And speak of an ancient loving passion
Old as the rocks and as young to pour
Mercy and kindness to all bad cases
A drop of loveliness, a just ration.

The clouds gather in a quick momentum
To pelt with justice the mountain side
Bring it lush growth all its days
To a leaping human quantum
Such is balance amid the craze
Of today’s world of time and tide
Sorrows borrowed where you lent them.
