Nature In My Heart

Nature in my heart

Pristine grew my thoughts..

Tender showers of raw emotion,

Rustling leaves are now in motion.

Captured in my memory

I am bound to serve this treasury.

The beaming rays appear with grace,

The feathery touch of mild music sways.

Wet woods spread, now erase

Drunk went my senses in its haze.

So vast and wild, promises of Time..

Shielding your fragrance, that’s now mine.

Chasing the dawn, I lie in your arms,

Couples relish, nature’s charm..

The chirping birds commence the bridal,

Darker shades of dusk, I battle.

Scattered was my soul

I embraced you to console…

The drowning night and perplexed minds

Bewailing the loss

Of your past beauty in sight..

A blazing candour, Is what I adore.

The essence of nativity, I borrow for my soul.

Keeping nature enclosed

Beyond the blue sky, I wept and arose.

Freshness in my nerves sparked,

Beholding the beauty of Nature in my Heart.
