The Rhythm of Her Call

Honour her within your Soul

Feel the kiss of Mother Nature’s cool breeze upon your skin,

Feel the warmth of her rays instil within your essence,

Feel the silkiness of her tears wash your troubles away,

Feel yourself surrounded by her effortless omnipresence.

**

Taste the tang of Mother Nature’s gifts upon your tongue,

Taste the saltiness of her ocean’s scent lapping at your feet,

Taste the sorrow of her storm’s rage as it assaults your space,

Taste the sweat that rolls from your pores in her rising heat.

**

See the pureness of Mother Nature’s cloudless sky,

See the twinkle of her stars as they wink in the night,

See the beauty in her waterfalls as they sing in chorus,

See the sheer perfection of your uniqueness cast in delight.

**

Hear the pounding of Mother Nature’s surf as it greets her shore,

Hear the whistle in her trees as they wave in greeting,

Hear the preen of her birds as they salute the full moon,

Hear the rhythm of your breath in time to your heart beating.

**

Smell the scent of Mother Nature’s dust storm rolling across the desert,

Smell the fragrance of the first rosebud unfurling in spring,

Smell the wet fur of her children; the gracious animals who wander her lands,

Smell the arousal of your destiny when you welcome the truth in.

**

Dance to the chorus of Mother Nature’s rise and fall,

Dance with the tempo of her tides; both her tilt and her sway,

Dance into tomorrow with her forgiveness of past undulations,

Dance through your troubles until your happiness finds its own way.

About the Creator

Colleen Millsteed

My first love is poetry — it’s like a desperate need to write, to free up space in my mind, to escape the constant noise in my head. Most of the time the poems write themselves — I’m just the conduit holding the metaphorical pen.

    The day grows ever nearer when the "Brisbane" of your existence shall evanesce even from your review mirror & all these sights, sounds & tastes shall be yours, Colleen.
