Nature's Simple Complexity

All of life's drama,
  all the he said-she said,
Melts away as the 
  trees engulf me
Bringing me back to
  the simple things in life,
Where peace reigns
  and life abounds,
As clouds floating about me
  in a sea crystalline blue,
The wind whispers a song 
  through the trees,
    a lover wooing it's true love,
Birds singing,
  bugs buzzing,
    laying the rhythmic foundation,
Life and its simple complexity 
  exploding peacefully around me,
The bigger picture making
  my worries seem so small,
Shrinking into nothing,
  thrown to the wind,
Leaving a serenity 
  that can only be found
From the wonders of the natural world.
