Natures Voice
I search my life for pillars of silence
And reflect on what they mean
I turn to nature, and look at what’s unspoken
Their silence, yet to be broken
The message of a boulder can only be seen
By its figure, and its scene
The Boulder sits on the shore of a lake, still in silence
What would we hear from the Lake, could it speak?
Would it tell tales of the fish that live within
Or of the fisherman, come to catch its kin?
In the reflection of the Lake, a dark group of clouds can be seen in the sky
The stories of its travels, told to us as it passes by
In the form of raindrops on our skin, no longer dry
The raindrops the Clouds have brought rid a wild flower of its thirst
The flower now grows high, its scent dispersed
The Bee comes to pollinate, for in its fragrance it is immersed
By the rain of the Clouds, and the pollination of the Bee
The Flower bears a single cluster of fruit
The journey of the Fruit lies within its sweet taste
As hunger is erased
From the silence comes
A message from the unspoken
