Nature
by: Lisa SamuelI watch the waves crach in,
Breaking on the shore all their anger despensed on the oceans floor.
I look up at the sky so blue,
Sun shining so bright.
Long blades of grass sawing in the gentle breeze,
Dancing in rhythm with so much ease.
I look up at the trees hearing the singing of birds,
Happily chirping singing at ease.
Sitting hear holding my knees to my cheast,
Watching and hearing nature at its best.
We hold are anger let are happiness shine,
Making are survival a struggle each and everyday.
We have forgotten some little things that mean so much,
like the laughter, the freedom and someone's loving touch.
In each other's existence in harmony we could all survive.
I'm sure like the sun, wind, trees and birds are lives we could all survive.
