PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Trees are created for the shade they provide

flowers for their distinctive bouquet.

Waterfalls are created for their overflowing beauty 

bees for their honey and their beautiful ballet.

Oceans are created for their vastness and rhythm

the sun, moon and stars for their light.

Clouds are created to bring us the rain

birds for their elegant flight.

Meadows are created for their peacefulness

mountains for their peaks so tall and grand.

Rivers are created to carve out landscapes

beaches for their endless sand.

The trees, the bees, the mountains the beaches every day are celebrated…

as are all the other unique wonders Mother nature has created.

Which makes me ask when nature looks at us…

from the flowers that bloom to the the trees that shade 

to the birds and clouds that soar…

do they ever ask themselves…

I wonder…what are humans created for.

Of course if we could ever stop our hatred of one another

stop our discrimination and our wars

wouldn’t it be wonderful if we found our compassion, our acceptance

and our kindness is what we were create for.

Then we could proudly take our place in nature…

next to the sunlight peeking through the trees…

If creating kindness could be as natural to humans

as creating honey is to the bees.
