No Mother Nature Today

I see the scape that is in front of me
There is no green today, no sound,
Just views from the window pane
Looking down on a life size model
Cars like cutouts, lined up all in a row
A visual from an architect’s mind
The sky is blue, the tar is black
Concrete paths so crisp and new
I don’t hear the sweetness of a birds call
Or the leaves shimmering from the breeze
No remnants of rain been and gone
I guess mother- nature is absent today
Preparing for her moments to shine
On a scene that is still yet to be
A place where her magic will breathe
Life, into the architects dream

Nature is such a solace for me and how we value her more when she is missing. Love your style. SuZ

All that we now see will eventually be eaten up by mother nature. We are but temporary guests which will one day wear out our welcome. Great poem!
