Nature's Healing Kiss

“A life of disharmony with nature will dehumanize us. Never ignore nature’s power to heal and restore and fuel us with new enthusiasm. The younger generation, glued to the cyber space do not know what they truly miss.” ~ By Poet. have you ever been into a forest? do you seek solace in nature’s lap? in my loneliness, I often turn to nature. in her soothing embrace, I find such joy. Today, into the woodlands, I leisurely walked, where trees grew huddling one another. they talked to me in a lingua, that I could easily understand. rustling leaves whispered love’s enchantments in my ear. I felt they were my friends of a primordial age. the birdsongs were a balm for my soul. and my mind too joined in their symphony. in hidden glades, I saw a world of flowers thriving, they bloomed and blushed in silence. unattended and unnoticed, they will wither in a day or two. this thought left me sad for a moment, and Thomas Gray’s famous lines, in ‘The Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard’ came to my mind. I saw wild orchids of creamy white and bright orange. below some trees, I noticed a wild array of daylilies, nodding and dancing delightfully in the breeze. their sweet fragrance came wafting into my nose. around them, I saw bees and butterflies, reeling round. from far I heard the babbling of a brook. its soft murmur was at once soothing and alluring. I could see its glimmer as it wound its way, through jutting rocks and crevices. as I stood losing myself in the serenity of the place, forgetting all the noisy cacophony of the streets, I felt my cracks and scars quickly being healed, by mother nature’s soothing embrace!
