Nature's ways

Nature’s ways aren’t mysterious 

Everything in it, so luxurious 

Bigger than what eyes can see

She’s everywhere, where can we flee?

Nature has room for one more seed

The mind we nurse and feed

The mind and nature grow apart 

But nature has a head start

There’s a silent exasperation 

As the mind vacates its obligation

Living in nature’s palatial garden

The mind’s become a rogue warden 

Innocence lives in the bark of every tree

We’re severing our roots in a cutting spree 

Nature’s luxuries won’t last for long 

If we continue to live like we don’t belong
