Turn To Mother Nature

TURN TO MOTHER NATURE

O the ever idly busy and occupied humans!
Do stop for a while
Do wait for a while
Do watch for a while
Do enjoy for a while
When Mother Nature does merrily dance.

Her enchanting glance pours peace
Her enticing gait is full of bliss
Her dulcet music removes doldrum
Her vicinity becalms every material storm.

She drifts you away to an Elysian realm
Where pesters you none like the Pandora’s curse,
Bathe you will in a nectaric, sprightly stream
Mundane woes will evanish, heavenly gaiety will rush.

Why do you roam, roil, revel noisily and roister
In the rocky, turbid and spurious world,
After execrable flotsam and jetsam hanker
O man – careworn, capricious and blurred?

None like Her will refresh, relieve and fructify
Nowhere but in Her abode does lasting respite lie.
Turn to Her – your only refuge of rest and reprieve
Yes, She will hug you, mollify, and gladly revive!

[N.B: Fructify means make fruitful or fertilize; mollify means make calm or pacify]
