Tree – DP

If you compare yourself to the tree,

so slender, strong and straight.

The tree does not express his strength,

in attempting to dominate.

He does not crush those weaker than him,

he cannot chase you off.

Just holds out those magnificent arms,

those branches he holds aloft.

Take a tree in a community,

who does not utter any words.

Not undertaking many deeds,

just as a shelter for the birds.

His roots are deep and solid,

no way he’ll be pushed about.

Remaining strong and silent

not pushing opinion out.

He gains the praise of nature

with a strength that’s so assured.

With a mightiness and perfection,

by following natures laws

Nature Lessons 38

Through our communications we are able to instill love and kindness.  Watch and be present in all forms of communication as it does not come with words alone, listen to the world around you, give time to others and watch as the colours of the universe blend with your actions.

Grace of Nature

IMG_4908

The embodiment of graceful, you as you near to me.

as graceful as a big white swan, gliding purposefully.

A gentle sparrow on the wing, the songbird you can see, 

the pigeons as they gently kiss, as graceful as can be.

So truly very graceful, like the head of a falling rose,

dipping gently towards earth, with dignity not woe.

and as she lies out on her bed, the end is coming soon

gracefully she kisses earth, where her love once bloomed.

Nature Lessons 37

A rose is more than just a flower, it’s a beautiful perfume that follows us around and stays with us. It’s confetti for a bride and a carpet of petals on the ground.  A rose is a gift or love, a welcome and a goodbye and a beautiful memory to cherish.  May your own spirit grow into the world like the spirit of a rose.

Nature Lessons 34

If you are blessed with good family and friends, no matter how far away they are or how often you get to speak, treasure them.  These are the people who carry you through life and make the more difficult times easier to bare.  Life passes in an instant, let those you love know you are grateful for their love and friendship.
