Me with nature :)

I was sitting on a mountain peak
No one around it was all just me
I said then Air do you listen to me
I take you in and out as i breath
Why do you never complained and rejected to be




Air said your the reason i am to be
I turned around to the spring
O water you cover the mother earth
You travel around the Globe for what
Why, what’s your purpose what do you seek
Water said i seek if i can meet a thirsty being
So i can be of use and save his being.



I looked away down to the mother earth
Hello graceful Lady how do you do
I am fine darling grace be on to you
Tell me mother earth why do you revolve
You never take a nap or come to rest



Earth said dear I am in love with you
I revolve around myself to save you from heat
I turn around to give you night so you sleep
I turn around again so you can work and see
Then i revolve around sun so you have seasons
Your nature i know i am the mother earth
I make sure you properly sleep and grow



Turned to sun ..O son why do you burn
Sun said beloved it’s in Love that i burn
I said how come you love me so much
Lord made me just to serve thee
So finally i turned around to myself and said
Praise be on to the Lord of Heavens and Earth


Clouds and Waves



Mother, the folk who live up in the clouds call out to me -"We play from the time we wake till the day ends. We play with the golden dawn, we play with the silver moon."



I ask, "But how am I to get up to you ?" They answer, "Come to the edge of the earth, lift up your hands to the sky, and you will be taken up into the clouds."



"My mother is waiting for me at home, " I say, "How can I leave her and come?" Then they smile and float away.



But I know a nicer game than that, mother. I shall be the cloud and you the moon. I shall cover you with both my hands, and our house-top will be the blue sky.





The folk who live in the waves call out to me -"We sing from morning till night; on and on we travel and know not where we pass." I ask, "But how am I to join you?"



They tell me, "Come to the edge of the shore and stand with your eyes tight shut, and you will be carried out upon the waves." I say, "My mother always wants me at home in the everything-how can I leave her and go?" They smile, dance and pass by.



But I know a better game than that. I will be the waves and you will be a strange shore. I shall roll on and on and on, and break upon your lap with laughter. And no one in the world will know where we both are.
