There is a magic in the earth
That is a part of me –
I feel it thrumming in my veins –
As I walk through the Trees –

In every flower and every blade,
In every river flowing free –
The Earth breathes life into my heart
And sings her song with me –

So let me wander where I will,
And let me breathe the air –
For every step I take in joy,
Is here a prayer, and there a prayer –

For Nature is my only Friend,
And with her heart, I twine –
In perfect harmony, our souls
Will join in love divine –

• Emily Dickinson
