WHY NATURE
Have you ever wondered why we were created?
if you haven’t take a moment to reminisce
and while you’re at it ask yourself
why were we placed upon a planet as beautiful as this?
Why does the water call to us? Why along her shores do we love to stroll?
Perhaps she’s there to replenish our hearts…and help to soothe our souls.
Why do we walk in the woods? Why do her trees and animals we embrace?
Could it be the forest asks for nothing….and moves at a much more leisurely pace?
Why does a sunrise, a sunset, a rainbow or face in the clouds make us smile.
Perhaps they are there so we can enjoy nature’s artistry if only for a little while.
Why do we love to walk among the flowers that paint the surface of the ground?
Perhaps every now and then we need to visit places where only beauty can be found..
Perhaps we love to frequent nature as often as we can because we find
nature lives by a different set of standards…than those set by humankind.
In nature you won’t find prejudice, no sexism…no homophobia permeating the air.
no abuse, no wars, no hatred, no bitterness…no racism anywhere.
Nature understands and revels in the fact that all her species are different…
yet still part of the same habitat.
She would never think to call her members names like ugly, stupid or fat.
Nature accepts and celebrates her diversity…she strives to keep all her creatures alive.
for she knows without this co-dependent medley…she would not survive.
Perhaps that’s why nature’s water calls to us…we walk in her woods
and stand in awe at every sunrise, sunset and rainbow that we see…
to remind us as we revel in her beauty…
to be the people we were designed to be.
