Nature Is My First Love

Nature is my first love

The sun has the softest touch 

But the moon 

Can whisper the sweetest love letters

The tallest trees

Have the most beautiful voices 

But the grass tells

The wind the darkest secrets

Snowflakes kiss

My eyelashes

And fill me with hope

But the rain 

Envelopes my skin and

Washes away my fears

The stars

Wink at me 

From across the skies

But the smooth rocks 

Along tide washed shores

Beg to be held

And while i can never 

Truly be with the moon

Or the rain 

Or the smoothest of stones

I can still dream of them

Because nature is my first love
