The Benefits of Nature

Nature's artwork is out of this world,
Too magnificent for words
Splashes of paint of every hue
As if hurled with gay abandon
From bottomless paint pots
To a canvas in the sky
Creating exquisite shapes and artwork
In all, it has many shapes and forms.
Only nature artists do not conform.
To any other visual still-life painters,
Because perfection cannot be competed with.
Nature's paint pot brings joy to us all,
Physically and mentally.
It personifies every emotion.
Life is not always a walk in the park,
Or a walk out of the woods,
But it can lighten your heart for a while
And give you hope for the future.
