Nature's Goddess Came To Greet

Nature's Goddess Came To Greet I stood upon a new dawn When life was on the mend And Spring burst in my heart Nature's glory became my friend Night stars and moon gave delight As if life commanded this show Brilliant rays cast upon the trees A movie brightened dark the night The forest spoke its worth Creatures danced in sweet time A pulse livened the glowing scene Death and birth both sublime Earth sent spirits to reveal Stardust lying, lightly all around Sights and sounds marvelous to behold Mysteries slept in time surreal Blast of knowledge entered in haste Trees spoke with renewed vigor Nightbirds sang in softened tunes She appeared a glowing figure Nature's goddess came to greet Lowly man now most confused A gift rarely ever given man Goddess showering presents at man's feet Set deep in this majestic night dream Earth, Man and Nature eternally a team Robert J.

Very good, Robert. This would be a good poem to use regular meter in, as you already have some lines that follow a pattern: "Nightbirds sang in softened tunes" and "Nature's goddess came to greet" and "Lowly man now most confused" for example.
