In honor of this being the middle of spring, I thought this poem would be a great reflection on the forces of nature.
In Nature
In nature I roam
Nature is my home
It gets bright the sun says “hi”
The night comes and the day goes by
Out comes the moon
It will be cold soon
The storm ruins a perfect day
The children cannot play
Danger is amongst slippery roads
The truck drivers rush as they carry heavy loads
But without the rain there would be no bright flowers
And the sun would burn we people for hours
Nature builds, nature destroys,
See nature is wild nature excites the little boys
Nature carries life and it swirls
Nature brings confidence and beauty to the girls
Nature is not nice but it is fair
Nature does not pick sides but it lives everywhere
Nature makes the world go around
It is neither up or down
Nature is our friend
Nature crafts things into a bend
Nature walks and sways with a smile
Nature comes and it does hurt for a while
But the hurt is short and the sun will shine
And the light will be around until the end of time
So as long as the tides still sing
Happiness and peace is what nature will bring
