Nature my spouse

Nature my spouse

A Poem by Belita Sequeira
"

Nature is personified and a direct conversation takes place between nature and the speaker where the speaker glorifies the beauty of nature in its magnificent ways.

"
Nature be my spouse
Oh Nature ! Be my spouse
take me on thy journey to unravel your mystery
exploring newness everyday
with no morning ever the same
and shadowy nights and stormy evenings
and the setting sun to a new beginning.

O Nature! what might you show,
as you wash the shores with speckled water
and breathe fragrance into arid lands
and feed the trees in no mans lands
and keep them green in sun and sand.

O Nature ! For your humility with which you bow low to the Sun
with which you feed even the smallest ant.
Your grace with swaying trees in the coolest breeze
As your anger vents through the storms
and your love through the flowers.
As you swiftly let go of the scorching heat 
and sprinkle life with thousand raindrops.

O Nature ! with no difference that you render
 between trees of different types
as they grow side by side
and joyfully lend a hand to each other 
to kiss the sunlight beams.

O Nature ! how does it feel to tend the feet that crushed your heart
with selfish passions not sown by your love?
Now do I deserve a spouse so endearing 
as I belong to the same selfish lot?
I wonder.
