Flawless Nature


I woke up today

To the sun rising high above

When I think about the natural aspects

of a flower or a dove

It makes me think of why they are the way they are

 

The concept of being is hard to grasp

As years and years elapse, I change

This whole time I've been me. As is.

The flower sways in the breeze

The dove flaps its elegant wings

This is nature being as it is

 

Planets form, stars evaporate

Leaving their enriched guts to form other worlds

I hurl my mind into the books and come out with a new defined perspective

 

There are frozen planets that will host no life

Planets with toxic atmospheres to forever haunt them and

Barren planets with nothing but the abyss at their forefront

 

Yet, look at us.

Look at Earth.

Mountains stretch amongst our continents

Jungles entagle many species and

Beautiful oceans fill in the gaps...

 

What makes up our existence in itself is beautiful

The reason why we exist is because 

You and I, and the system of nature in which we exist is flawless.
