The Glory of Nature

The Glory of Nature

Submitted by: Downhome
581 Views | 2 Likes

Taken in Algonquin Park, Northern Ontario, October 2008. Here you can see the beauty and glory of nature in its true sense. It was here that gave me the magnetic inspiration to write, "The Glory Of Nature."

The glory of nature does speak to us all,
Whether it be the springtime or it be the fall.
Such awesome shows as the sun awakes each day,
And lovingly lifts it from the dark where it lay.

New sights and new sounds are so breathtaking there.
A soft flowering dogwood, as it sweetens the air.
A stately aging oak tree is an overpowering sight,
Like the pure gracefulness of a bluebird in flight.

The spellbinding power that forever shows,
In the elegant beauty, of one single rose.
Many raindrops feed the earth, till it heeds the call,
To prepare for the winter when forth comes the fall.

The multi-coloured beauty with each falling leaves,
As they plummet eastward with each passing breeze.
Squirrels flirt about, gathering nuts for the winter stock,
As they prepare themselves for the cold winter shocks.

Yet, the ice and the snow that the winter does bring,
Makes the glory much sweeter when forth comes the spring.   Submitted By: NULL
