Listen To Nature
Original Poem By: Michaelson Williams
Title: Listen to Nature
Listen to nature
The birds, the trees
Pay close attention to the falling of the leaves
Understand this is but only one life
Unnecessary to cut tension with a knife
Remembering when you were a child
Knowing nothing more than happiness through a smile
Learning to walk by taking baby steps
Parts of the journey we try to forget
Pushing the memories down, often hoping they quit
Rising back to the surface refusing to submit
Pain and drama often showing as fear
Nothing in this life intrinsically clear
Everything we know is but only a notion
A mixture of dreams, one colossal potion
Positives and negatives on which we will feed
Not knowing exactly which ones to believe
Standing in the rain, feeling every drop
Praying to something, hoping it stops
Let IT go and listen to nature
Turn your gaze; she wants you to face her
Let everything go, plant a new crop
Only then will you realize, that you are the rock
The fire, the water, and even the wind
Listen to Nature, embrace her within.
Expand your mind
Set off into the Universe
Open the doors in which you haven’t rehearsed
Listen to Nature
