Nature's Offerings

Oh, nature please give me release

Give me a view to end this stew

My pain is deep, my soul still weeps

I cannot shake my inner ache


Please hear my words and send wild birds

To eat birdseed with urgent speed

Let bird song reign to end my bane

Melodic trills my soul distills


Let my eyes fetch a bunny's stretch

A furry guest taking a rest

Under a bush where green shoots push

He shows no fear that I am near


Warm breeze a kiss for mind's abyss

That lifts my pain to help it drain

Ensnare bad thoughts that pain has brought

Whip pain away and end it's stay


Create a play on sunny day

Watch gray squirrel race, a treetop chase

As tails whip round, they race to ground

Hear leaves rustle as they tussle


A purple finch, a peanut pinch

First time he's near, he's lost his fear

A trust I've earned through patient yearn

Some change comes slow, no easy flow


As my heart fills from nature's thrills

And soul renews with nature's views

My mind turns wheels, my soul will heal

As nature guides and turns pain's tide
