Nature's Lap

The sweet fragrance from the brightly colored jewels seem to call someone

The thick canopy shields me from the unforgiving sun

The birds chirp melodiously in unison

I listen to them, utter non comprehension

while the gossiping leaves whispers secrets to the winds.

There is no better place to be , it is sure

How wonderful it is to be in the lap of Mother Nature!

The nightingale sings a lullaby sweet

Laying on nature's lush carpet green

I close my eyes, drifting into a perpetual sleep.

Since I live next to a huge wilderness on the central California coast, I am very much in touch with nature every day. I love writing about nature & I love your poem about nature. I love the things you choose to highlight & the way you describe everything in a fresh way. Your respectful enjoyment can be felt & it’s the same way I feel, too! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
