Nature's Child

Listening to the trees, Touching the wind, Dancing with falling leaves, Finding her strength from nature. Being nourished and refreshed. Sunlight filling her senses, Moonbeams touching her dreams. Sitting among trees with animals. Watching a young fawn, A squirrel eating from her palm Giving her pleasure. Feeling close to the universe As you can only do out in nature. Sensing the strength and love That we are capable of offering, Receiving and letting grow. Feeding on the beauty, Peace and timeless goodness That are all around us. Finding delight in new blooms, In fresh green grass and old climbing Vines heavy with wild grapes. Watching the ants in their orderly society, The busy honeybee fulfilling it's preordained destiny. Nature is touching her soul with it's Beauty Giving her back her belief In the goodness of mankind. Glistening, wet diamonds are falling on her Touching her brow Wetting her unruly hair Cooling her mind. The earth smells of autumn, Raindrops drumming on fallen leaves Beetles scurrying to safety. She smiles.
