Nature

Nature

~wooden soldiers in formation
      creator has his ducks in a row

~orderly fashion, creation’s design 
     creation by love  decrees
        life of spirit, in trees

~branches, water, leaves
     the beauty photogenic… 
       photosynthesis   

~humanity’s gift 
     leaves give up their offering
       watered of branches

~ Constance La France ~ A Rambling Poet ~ ~
For Nature Four in One Contest
