At One With Nature

At One With Nature

The wind smells like wet grass,

rain from yesterday,

I walk barefoot,

mud squishing between toes,

why wear shoes,

the sky confused,

gold or gray,

birds argue,

the river laughs at me,

waves clapping stones,

mountains shrug,

clouds whisper secrets,

nature does not hurry,

does not complain,

it exists,

messy, absurd, perfect,

flowers nod cheering,

sun peeks shyly,

air tastes of earth and possibility,

I stumble, smile,

the world does not care,

I laugh,

almost cry,

this is living? Yes it is.
