Nature, you.

Feedback Received!

The sun, the stars, The earth and the moon, The trees, the rain, The birth from the womb.

The joy in our life, And the treasures we seek, Is the glittering fish, As it glides through the creek.

The depth of the ocean, The limitless sky, The depth of emotion, As I look in your eye.

Your crackling lightning, Your thunder and wind, This space without you, Is empty and dimmed.

Your salty tears, Fall down your cheek, Your building black clouds, Just started to leak.

Summer is fleeting, As we both found, We danced in a whirlwind, Yet couldn’t be bound.

But a life with us, And a life without, Is equally blissful, My love, have no doubt.

With childlike adventure, And sober withdrawal, The future it beckons, We must answer its call.
