Natures Inspiration

A walk upon a path to the forest that spreads out beyond This is adjacent to a pond that has many venues Seeing spectacles of sun flickering amongst the hemlock trees That aligns this path which leads to bountiful channels of awe. Morning dew drips off the petals of numerous flora and softens the ground Nature’s bountiful vista is perceivable within and above the forest’s abode. What is the perception gained of this spectrum of colors? Does this vision elude one’s thoughts of nature’s bestowed offerings? Are there trees within the forest or is it just the forest that the path follows? Perhaps it’s just the forest itself which relinquishes the true beauty within Is there not a moment of hesitation to pause and reflect to acquire some inspiration? Does one come to the end of the path and not achieve monumental aspirations? Nature creates the setting into an image It all depends how one visualizes that image to create a thought Thus that thought can create a concept Which can evolve into a precious memory for keeps sake? Wilderness expands beyond one’s accumulative insight Infinity’s image is obscured from mankind An eagle’s acquisition of this vista is kept in memory Man does learn from the beast that explores this wilderness. Nature provides bountiful wonders and harmonious pleasure Man can only grasp what he is capable of within his surroundings Soaring above, the eagle can acquire that bountiful vista Can this acquisition be transcended to mankind? Nature is divided between the known and the unknown The unknown can be transpired thru relative intuition Lessons taught from nature are subliminal but pertinent to mankind Man and eagle gain insight to which nature has bestowed. Thus the view of the forest by man and eagle is separable It’s how one generates that image and formulates true knowledge Nature’s offerings is to all and to all from above Seldom do we pause and reflect and absorb what lies before us. It’s not the quantity of images that nature bestows upon us It’s the quality of such subliminal images embedded within our mind Someday those images will be déjà vu To be recreated into another dimension. From this moment in time we must reflect nature’s gifts We must purposely untwine this lesson to gain insight And formulate elementary meanings of what we perceive But this won’t occur unless we pause and reflect profound inspiration from nature.
