Thoughts By a Meadow

 Thoughts by a meadow~

Nature has no problem with touch.
Ferns, grasses, Dandelion, Buttercup ~ they all intermingle
The massive stump of an elderly tree
Gives nourishment to Evergreen and Walnut together
Foxgloves, Bleeding Hearts, and Poppies sway together in the breeze
Leaves share their branches freely
It all sustains each other
The connection is beyond comprehension
From the caterpillar that needs the leaf
To the worm providing oxygen to the roots
And the bird eating the worm and also planting seeds
And this I think is what we were meant for
This immense connection
This sustaining of and giving to each other
From the flowering Magnolia tree to the vibrant Dandelion
To the mighty Oak and gnarled Apple Tree
It all constantly gives to its environment
And that is what we can do as well
It is what we must do
Plant generosity
Color, nurture, beauty
To be given to
To feed your soul
Nourish your spirit
To give all you have to give
To be all that you can be
As is lived out for you
So clearly
All around you in total harmony and freedom
Nature's touch
