Mother Nature


Mother nature swallow me up in to the recesses of your heart. engulf me with your sweet tender tendrils, quite my soul with soothing moss and dappling sunlight for my pale skin. Show me the way through your forests of green and brown, caressing me with the feel of elephants aged skin.

I remember this place, where the tree tops cover the horizon and all that i see is simple beauty. Is this what heavens like? Mother nature teach me the ways of this place, never let me go. All people do is destroy, and one day they will destroy me. Save me from their grasp, let me become part of you.

A tree nymph hidden from the world, or the sprouting leaves off a sapling. Please let me be a part of you, let me run away from this life, and start anew. I know you mother, many deny you of what you deserve, but i'll treasure you. red, yellow, green, and purple, a garland of your beauty for you Mother.

I appreciate you, giving me the life i live surrounded by untainted beauty of flowing waterfalls, and majestic mountains. But no one see's what i see mother, they just take and take, but no one is willing to give back the bounty you have made.

You mother were once strong and beautiful, long black hair tumbled off your back representing the flowing seas, soft nimble fingers, now worn brittle with time. Breaking under the pressure of all your children's wants and needs. You use to be so beautiful mother, what happened?

I know your children don't love you like i do, let me help you mother. Let me help you become the one you once were.

So please swallow me up, and help you become new.
