Nature In My Heart

Just as the winds blow....

So do the emotions in my heart....

    they change and turn

    some intense, some calm



Just as the thunder roars....

So do the voices in my heart....

    demanding to be heard

    aching to be understood



Just as the rains come....

So do the tears in my heart....

    I cry for things to come

    for what was never meant to be



Just as the snow falls....

So does the chill in my heart....

    withdrawing into myself

    cold to those wanting in



Just as the clouds disappear....

So does the sadness in my heart....

    acceptance of who I am

    the willingness to go on



Just as the warm sun shines....

So does the love in my heart....

    for friends who have touched my life

    and good times yet to come.
