Mick Talbot Poet Sonnet

The Wonders of Nature

The wonders of nature, observe, look out!
Goes without saying, its never in doubt!
The beauty of humans err their gender!
All art, yes, nature's palette holds splendour!

Birds of paradise, butterflies morphing!
Metamorphosis magic, and courting,
life for a day, one aim, procreating!
Humans, true love, adult life, relating!

The wonders, splendour, begging attention.
The human form is my contemplation,
has sadly lost its sense of direction,
right or wrong is still seeking perfection?

Nature its beauty it fears extinction!
If gone, we face total dereliction!
