A poem in tribute to the wonders of the beauty of nature.
The sun, she walks with a thousand candles,
Her flickering wick teases the navy sky,
While the rain hides her secret,
behind the velvet drapes,
waiting for the melancholy clouds,
to release their tears of sorrow,
The blushing desert, buries her love in the sand,
The rushing oceans, say come and dance with me,
I'll tell you what it feels like to tango with the sea,
The grassy green mossed carpets,
shadow the impoverished dirt floors,
The mountains, stand guard,
over the virtue of nature,
As the wind sings a hauntingly familiar chorus,
of dreams that are blown away,
when the dawn has aged,
and wrinkled times are dusk,
The horizon caresses,
The earth's fleeting air,
Moon beams, invade your house at night,
like a burglar you'll never see,
While Saturn's bangles are around her wrist,
too naked for the eye to see,
Stars are scattered in the space,
Like leaves upon a tree,
The earth's face is wrinkled with canyons, so deep,
some are full to brim with tears,
others merely sleep,
The endless days are numbered,
all things must come to pass,
As mother nature stands ,
to peer through the looking glass
