In Nature's Time
A Poem by
Susan Beth Horvath
Nature, in its finest hour Does not work to times' devour It is a wonder of the seasons' clime Each season washes in its note On its own tidal float Nature works to its own good time Nature has no forward spin To race the natural span’s engine There’s no sudden bolt from the blue It’s all a drifting sense of merge No strike of outing purge Haze becomes a clear-sight view Settle in a comforts’ realm Nature, with paintbrush at the helm Realises a colouring to full extent Enthuses cobalt’s, exotic greens Red and all diverse scenes Whatever is in natural experiment Sit and watch a pleasant day See the night-scope in twinkled array Change of dress in natural wear The softened clouds rolling by Relax the vision of your eye And live your life in nature’s care

Wonderfully written and expressed, a gem indeed.

Your thought seems coherently expressed. I found some of the words and phrasing to be awkward. Line 5 is a bit jarring. This poem might be improved by a tighter rhythm and complete punctuation. Perhaps if you took it into the wordsmithy and beat it with a hammer it might yield a finer metal?

I have to agree with Mr. smith.
It's straightforward honest, beautifully composed.

Very telling, poetically done to express the emotion without the flowery, overdone fuss. I like the title and the straight-ahead style.
