The Beauty of Nature and Man

By

It is so easy to get lost as we marvel our own work
Forgetting that all that we do is inspired by what nature has provided.
It is best to occasionally stop and pay attention to all things around
To notice the natural that caused such works to be inspired.

Nothing is as poignant as pictures to pointing out narrow perception.
Returning again and again to catch a glimpse at everything that is there
Eyes roaming over the landscape frozen in time
Occasionally stopping to examine with a long steady stare.

Look passed the concrete and brick so carefully laid
And see all the things that silently call from the background
Humming a tune of the things that were before and will last long after
It is all there, giving life to the object, all those thing that it surround.

A sign and a bridge that mark the marvel of man
May be the focus and pull of all thought
But it is the world of nature that stands out
Reminding us all of what time may have forgot.

Once nothing was there, and likely time will return it to the Earth.
Long after that, nature will stand steady and tall
Watching the world in silent cogitation
Unless we are ready to forever rebuild whenever structures to time do fall.
