The Goddess of Nature, a Visit

The Goddess of Nature, A Visit The depth of the journey ventured! Across the vast plains I glide: the sky beaming down upon my back. This my trek-- sends tingles into my hardened soul. A feast! A galactic flight into the realms of Nature's mysteries. I stand upon a forested shore, the sun speaks; the wind beckons me forward into the welcoming glen. I tread lightly and silently to observe without damage or distress, the wildlife that now stirs my dreams. As waves of purest delight enter my mind, the birds sing out in tune. A melody so fine the earth snatches at the moon! I hold my position to absorb this enchantment longer. I am opening my heart to grab the spirit, the olden deity that sees my true soul. I float in a mirage that mists my face with colors, smells and kisses of glory! The she appears! The Goddess of Nature, a raven haired beauty of grace. Touching my heart as it races to catch her majesty! This is the scene I saw in my dream before the adventure and day's sojourn. The beauty of She that holds the sky, the woods , mountains and the seas in her hands. Time stands still for an eternity , then... She lets me go, A release back into my reality. I again see her handiwork and marvel at this gift. This creation that mankind fails to appreciate or understand! All is stored in a memory for replay and wonderment. A carved image of Nature and her majesty that soothes the ever yearning heart! Robert J. Lindley Sept. 1993 Note: A rare free verse poem written in my private journal long ago.. I hope you may enjoy this mystical journey that reflects reality and love of Nature..
