Nature Is My Creed

Nature Is My Creed
I loved the fresh mornings
And the long hot evenings
And the childhood happy days
Aching, with nostalgic yearnings
 
In the vine yard, gaily chanting
Under moonlight cicadas chirping
And the glowworms, flaring, mating
Between the river and the reeds
 
Those olden pathways, beating
Upward the rocky plains, hiking
To my sacred haven, heading
With light, joyous steps, striding
 
And when the mornings peeping
After a dark night, quietly sleeping
As the dormant lake now, awaking
Rippling gently, under dawn's breath
 
And the ocean awfully heaves
Splashing furious roars, it leaves
The water's ire, the fear it gives
Nature's wise words to heed
 
The rocky hard silence, speaks
The tender flower, grows betwixt
Through the narrow grove, it slips
Vivid, piecing between solid ribs
 
 
Still, i see what boy then i'd seen
Nature ever as faithful, as had been
To her rhyming rhythm, raging and placid
Thus, Nature's ways are my creed
Written by poeticdelight (Hamid)
