Nature and Me

Rainbows from a storm set up,
Left dazzling colors of hues
Clouds in the backdrop start to fade away
I think of sugar plums dancing in play.

The sun sends out its rays of light,
Winds in the air blowing just right
A drizzle of rain comes around
Not a drop of it hit the ground.

Nature, I do love its flowering smell,
And I can only begin to story-tell
That I've had this long-lasting affair
Where I and nature do not despair.

It is with her that gives me ease,
She's never failed me, she has always pleased
She breathes me in as I enter her woods
She took my hand, and there I stood.

Nature and her acceptance of me,
Free my mind of all drudgeries
She breathes me in as I enter her woods
She is beautiful to me, she's misunderstood

When I get the chance to go to nature's woods, her acceptance of my presence there is so invoking, and I can feel the forest come alive, she talks to me as I talk with the plants, I'm a deep-rooted empath. I take my drawing pad with me when it isn't humid or hot because of O² reasons. But thank you for the lovely comments and your visit. I appreciate you finding time to do so. Have a Great Day, SuZ! Blessings. Warm Regards, William
