Poetry – Mother Nature

Mother Nature

Pirouetting through the stars

                Twirling and spinning

                                Through the sky.

Her dress of green,

                Trailing over hills,

                                Through forests

                                                And seas.

Her caress bringing creatures to life.

From ice to fire,

                Her body is alive

                                With mystic energy

Stretching over aeons,

                Inducing

                                Enticing,

                                                Evolving

From simplicity to complexity,

                From nothing to something.

She smiles upon the universe,

                Unique and fantastical.

She cavorts through the ages

                Breathing life into the very rock.

Her dreams

                Fill the air,

                                The sea

                                                And the land.

Her breath drives the wind.

                Her tears fill rivers and oceans.

                                Her laughter brings forth laughter.

Her smile lights the sky.

Wounded by her own children

                She continues to give

                                Without blame.

This is a personification of nature. There has been much talk of Gaia exacting her revenge through Covid-19. Sending us a warning to change our ways or else, next time, it will be much worse.

The world is such a place of beauty.

Mother Nature is a thing of great wonder. It greatly upset me to see the mess we are making of the planet.

I’ve travelled the world and seen the destruction, pollution and devastation we leave in our wake. It is appalling.

If we stand back and look at the majesty of nature – it is breath-taking. Surely we should be doing all within our power to protect it>

Mother Nature is a lovely lady.

Pirouetting through the stars

Twirling and spinning

Through the sky.

Her dress of green,

Trailing over hills,

Through forests

And seas.

Her caress bringing creatures to life.

From ice to fire,

Her body is alive

With mystic energy

Stretching over aeons,

Inducing

Enticing,

Evolving

From simplicity to complexity,

From nothing to something.

She smiles upon the universe,

Unique and fantastical.

She cavorts through the ages

Breathing life into the very rock.

Her dreams

Fill the air,

The sea

And the land.

Her breath drives the wind.

Her tears fill rivers and oceans.

Her laughter brings forth laughter.

Her smile lights the sky.

Wounded by her own children

She continues to give

Without blame.
