Nature’s Revelations

In every leaf that unfurls with grace,
In every flower that blushes anew,
Nature reveals the heart of her face,
A sacred connection that feels ever true.

Oh, the wind sings a song, both sweet and profound,
While mountains keep watch, wise and revered;
In the beauty of wildness, serenity found,
In nature’s embrace, all my worries disappeared.

So may I remain here, in reverie and awe,
With each sunbeam that dances along the glen;
Nature’s revelations inspire us to draw
Closer to truth that transcends mortal ken.
