I can't bring myself to sleep yet it's almost five am here. I have two unfinished dark pieces in my drafts but this flooded in out of nowhere. I try to pen pieces like this but it rarely comes by. Share your thoughts :)
Of nature and her healing ways
Of the earth
The soothing rain
The wind and whatever it
Whispers to the land
Of the sea
Her salty waters
And the secrets buried deep.
Of the sun and his bright
Day the learned say
Of the moon
And her soft touch on a vast
Nightsky and of the stars
And their glint
Kissing the dimmed blue
In plainsight.
Of the dying rivers and their veins
Ferrying life
Across deserts and fertile
Plains
Often defying man
And his scientific ways.
Of any seeds and the promise
They bring
As everything that lives
Desires to cling
To life
When tomorrow comes.
Of the abundance of vibrancy
Men walking
Down the streets
Whilst birds rule the open skies
Wings wide spread
To conquer gravity
As fish master the shallows
And tame
The mysterious deep.
Of the essence and the balance
Keeping everything
In check
Of the energy that channels through
Nature and us
The laws that govern
All that calls this place a home.
