FOREST WALK

 
 a SESTINA NATURE POEM

Every time I walk amongst the trees

I think of the power of Mother Nature

how she can run such a kingdom

and get everything so very right.

If only I could live my life

conforming to such perfection.

 

Facing flaws of human perfection

hope springs a bird's nest tucked in trees

reminding how simple and precious life

becomes and the grace and balance Mother Nature,

bequeaths. Scented fields of flowers guides me right,

avenues of aromas my trails to reach her kingdom.

 

Lying in a flora-featured kingdom

thoughts of how a bloom can be perfection

bird songs assure me all is right,

should I venture amongst the trees

searching for mind’s peace from nature

and simple reasons for life.

 

Tranquility I find in the delicate hum of life

cascading waterfalls adorn the kingdom

a veil of serenity, timeless paragon of nature.

I meditate near the euphonious silver-tones of perfection

Then gently, a rustling sound comes from the trees

A white spotted deer ventures forth, harmony played right.

 

Look over there! A touch to your right…

a tiny magic elfin ring of life

somehow grows in the shade of the trees;

fungi fairies in a mossy kingdom,

dancing in their world of perfection

symbolized by this circle of nature.

 

By fairy dust, the sky is aflame, nature

in all her glory changing right

before my eyes; no sweeter perfection

than mountains, Cathedrals of the sky. Life

is beautiful in this jasmine scented kingdom,

walking under nobility of Redwood trees

 

The world of trees, the art of nature,

Every detail so right as to be perfection;

In God’s Kingdom, the eternal circle of life.
