Surrounded by Nature

The hum of nature amid the trees 
echoes quietly in gentle breeze, 
swaying the branches as falling leaves 
skim happily over rippled seas.  

I would call this paradise on earth, 
where peace and tranquility are worth 
all the riches and buckets of gold, 
more than two hands and both arms could hold. 

The papery bark provides a home, 
for tiny creatures to work and roam, 
using their skills to shelter from rain, 
replenishing soils, time and again. 

Distant wolves howl out aloud, 
a graceful hawk glides past a fleecy cloud, 
as sun's reflections shimmer and dance, 
and glowing eyes skillfully glance 

across the waters, blue as the skies, 
while drifting fish are caught by surprise; 
and the hum of nature fills the air, 
peace and serenity are everywhere. 

Paradise on earth, I call this place 
surrounded by nature, face to face. 
There's so much beauty here to be found, 
if we open eyes and look around.
