Secrets

As we walk upon the Earth 
under the sky 
among the trees
as we listen to the animals
or the waves upon the seas

As she awakens in the early morning 
or in the evening when she’s sleeping
there is so much about nature we do not know
so many secrets she is keeping.

She understands about balance
about beauty
about grace…
How everything in this world has value
has a place.

She truly understand what it means to be alive
and how only by working together will we continue to survive…

I only hope as we walk upon this Earth 
under the sky 
among the trees
as we listen to the animals
or the waves upon the seas 

she will one day share her secrets with us
and we, with great acclaim…
will smile with the knowledge
our world will never be the same

Wonderfully done. The mysteries of Nature are more than the stars in the heavens.

My world is forever changed every time I stop a second and admire nature; her secrets shared so generously in a feeling of "awe".
