Nature follows rhythms and works in her own time

She bends, unfurls and blossoms to make her own design

Her gentleness and beauty come from deep within her roots

Her power can surprise you as she always speaks her truth

Her colours can be vibrant yet dimmed when lying low

For she remains unrivalled in the art of letting go

She welcomes light and darkness and will dance in sun or rain

She is forever changing though her essence stays the same

When you spend time in nature there is nothing you must do

Just be present and remember that you are nature too
