Nature's Surroundings


As she walks barefoot into her garden, her body connects to the earth's healing magnetic fields.
She then sits on a faded wooden bench and is greeted by the flowers, who gently nod their heads.
 
A smile lights up her face as the warmth of the sun bathes her skin, and the green grass cushions and tickles her feet.
She then closes her eyes and relaxes in nature's surroundings.
 
The soft summer breeze caresses her hair as the soothing sound of leaves rustles on the trees.
She listens to robins sweetly singing their songs and breathes in the sweet perfume from the lilac blossoms.
She is connected and content.

This is so lovely, Anne, and easy to envision. I especially love the line, "the soft summer breeze caresses her hair as the soothing sound of leaves rustle on the trees..." That, to me, is the epitome of relaxation! Take good care, dear friend.

Hi Anne , in response to your question about Earthing / Grounding ~ I just read an article about it and it all makes perfect sense ! I love the fact that so many studies have been done around emotional well-being as well as physical wellbeing. It is magical the way it can heal inflammation and injury as well as help heal our hearts . Big hugs, Susan :)

When we are in close proximity to natural settings, we often experience fleeting periods of happiness and peace. What a beautiful poem that is. Anne, I am grateful that you took the time to visit and comment on my poems. Much appreciate your support.

Anne, this is really fantastic. Being linked to one's environment is the single most important thing we can do. The significance of togetherness and grace, as well as the petrichor of earth and air. This is one of my faves.
