Nature Wonders

It needs mindfulness, and creativity

By Seema PatelPublished about a year ago • 1 min read

Human brain is built

on pleasure-seeking circuitry.

We crave it deeply,

but are consumed by other things

and forget how to reap happiness.

We’re confused that

it will cost money,

it has to be brought.

No, you are getting it wrong,

nature is for free,

and it's hub of joys!

It's like treasure hunt,

you have to develop

mindfulness, and be creative

to enjoy the wonders.

With years of practice,

and mindset change,

I’ve mastered that,

let me share what I mean.

I go on nature walks,

and stay attentive,

to hidden miracles,

as if we are playing peek-a-boo.

Pick a dandelion seedhead,

and place it against the dazzling sun.

The backlit orb

turns to an ephemeral gem,

washed by amber glow.

I keep doing such little magics

for my delight, and I must say,

I am content, even amidst sorrows.
