In nature's grand design, a wondrous art,

There lies a secret, hidden from the start.

Camouflaged, it waits in shadows deep,

A tapestry of life where secrets keep.

Beneath the dappled canopy of trees,

A myriad of creatures, with grace and ease,

Blend with the earth, their colors intertwined,

Invisible to all, to the untrained mind.

The chameleon, a master of disguise,

With scales that shift like nature's own sunrise,

It takes on hues of leaves and sky above,

A master of the art of stealth and love.

In African savannas, where tall grasses sway,

The lioness lurks, her cubs not far away,

She melds with the golden sea of wheat and green,

A silent, hidden predator, seldom seen.

The octopus, beneath the ocean's blue,

Mimics coral reefs and algae, it's true,

Its skin transforms, like waves upon the sea,

A living masterpiece, a marvel to be.

And in the insect world, where flowers bloom,

A mantis hides, within petals' perfumed room,

Its form takes on the petals' vibrant hues,

Awaiting prey with patience it can't lose.

The soldier, dressed in camo, marches strong,

In uniform, he blends with nature's throng,

Defending homeland with a watchful eye,

Camouflaged, a hero, under the sky.

But camo's not just nature's hidden art,

It's also a symbol, a way to take part,

In blending with surroundings, staying concealed,

In times of war, it's a guardian's shield.

In life's grand tapestry, we find our way,

Sometimes we hide, sometimes we must display,

The art of blending in, adapting, being strong,

Camouflaged in this world, where we all belong.

So take a moment, and consider this art,

Camouflaged wonders, from the very start,

In nature's grand design, we find our place,

A camouflage of life, a hidden grace.

About the Creator

C.S LEWIS

I presently think positively. Railing and censuring just destroy. Confirmed speculation develops. I currently take a gander at the daily routine that I experience and confirm, "It is Great." I love and favor the Ideal Power inside me
