When Mother Nature Heals a Broken Soul

When Mother Nature Heals A Broken Soul Walk in Nature, to give it a visit stroll its epic beauty, maybe kiss it Touch ancient trees, rest in coolest shades purge my saddened heart with deep forest raids Don't tell my blue-shadow for it would cry thinking it had failed not knowing the why Pretending each path, journey into dreams fleeing fish swimming in clearest of streams As sun shines, see glory's majestic hues find over again, those welcoming clues Sing out loud, Mother Nature please, please bring soft, joyous views to destroy heartache's sting Sit in palaces of fallen red oak leaves Heal this, my aching soul, as it slow grieves.
