She Is We

Infused by nature’s patient ease,
I try to mirror her peaceful serenity,
in knowing that she lives in perfection
of purpose, of balance and ensuing,
and no matter what life admonishes,
if the natural world displays in remedy,
then for me, I shall follow her lead.

For as much as we hold court,
with sentient minds that contest all else,
nature needs not a word said,
for all her wisdom is evident in every aspect,
and regardless what we think, in arrogance,
she already holds the key,
the truth we so mould in our justifications.

And like the petals of a wondrous rose,
we all must shed our aged skins,
to find renewal in life, the changes of ascension,
of growth and higher understanding,
that life and death in nature’s mirror, reflect,
until we too dry up and perish,
transform into the nutrient of new life.

Not a truth goes by without nature’s reflection,
for she is we, and we are she,
the same cycles of life abide us both,
and instead of our intellectual forays into self,
we should simply observe what has always been,
for she talks to us through every living thing,
and secrets revealed to those who choose it.
