Natures Beauty

"A slow carefree stroll I took through the wild open forest...
the heavens opened and rain lashing down, standing still I look to the sky, arms spread in welcome awe with a smile and no trace of a frown...

"My body now soaked in the purest of rain, I fall to my knees and with both hands I scoop drenched fallen leaves, I press them to my face and inhale their odour, this is life, nature with it's wildest aroma..

"I lay myself down onto the leafy earth, I roll around like a playful child and embrace it's innocence, moisture, beauty and worth..

"I lay myself still with eyes closed and dreaming, not a sign of menace, cunning or scheming...

"In another world must I be, surrounded by nature, singing birds, animals of the wild in all their purity...

"Tis here tonight that I will lay my hat, for I will sleep amongst nature in all it's glory and splendure...for I know as a living being this is the closest thing to heaven on earth that I am seeing...
