Diplomats In Nature - with Grace

Tranquility in nature soft the headrest  
path to inner peace among the vines    
over time and shades of gentle haze
and evergreens among the pines
diplomats of the forest awakening
of the Monarch Butterflies  
taking footsteps up mossy paths

nestled among the pines
amidst towering evergreens
butterflies with grace and majesty
unfurls their wings, symbols of beauty
the forest awakens regal in green
Golden hue reflection of the distant sun
among the winding vines
buds of blooms start to unfold  

blooms of petals and wings
nature's tapestry clouds that swing
an interlude among the bees
in a symphony ballet as butterflies waltz  
from a lantern jar to dreams of moonlight  
like angel's dust on an armoire

the essence of nature spirit bound
watching the world so vast
in its memory old and new
a death that stings brings forth a rebirth
dwelling in every leaf and every tree
in the coolness of a spring
in the babble of the brooks
Spirit of Nature triumphant sings
