NO HORIZON
In s year of quirky weather
We have another day with
No horizon to be seen. It is
Bright enough to hurt your
Eyes. The clouds rolling in
Are beautiful and gives you
One more reason to love
Nature and the Almighty
Who gives it to us. There
Are times of tornadoes,
Hurricanes and forest fires
That we question why we
Are made to suffer the
Horrific damage and injuries
But these things
Bring us back to acknowledge
All the good things that happen
In nature and all the beauty
We observe on a day-to-day basis.
A hummingbird flew from flower
To flower and couldn’t find enough
Nectar so it flew off and up
Through the clouds to a branch
In a pine tree. It stayed for a while
Then flew off again looking for
Some new plants to investigate.
Nature gives and takes, a lot
Like humans and we can only
Wish that there is more giving.
