Nature's Beauty

Redwoods standing tall and strong.

sycamores with mushroom-like foliage.

Maple with their sap soon to be syrup.

Willows weeping in the new dawn light.

Cardinals singing on the branches of a oak tree 

At the rising sun.

Pine

never changing 

yet always growing.

taller 

taller

taller.

Reaching 

for the heavens.

A small colony of ants living in the ground.

All working together to create a haven of life.

Take away one thing 

and it all 

falls 

apart.

Please treat mother nature with respect.

After all we owe our lives to her.

  • Being

    Stepping outside

    after the rain,

    inhaling the fresh scent of spring.

    Taking a moment to just 

    be.

    Be with nature.

    Be in the moment.

    Nature has reset herself. 

  • Is it so hard?

    Is it really so hard to just be nice to people? 

    Why is it us versus them? 

    What makes "them" different? 

    "Worse" 

    We are all human, 

    all trying to get through our day. 

  • The Limit

    I reach my limit from time to time.

    whether it be at school or at home.

    I reach the limit of what my brain can handle.

    All of the noise of life becomes too much and I need to take a break.

    I need to turn my ears off.
