Nature’s myriad beauty

I wake up to the glorious light

And the filtering sun’s rays

Bringing hope into my life

And promising a new day

I stare at the warm light

Soaking in its golden hue

Just then, the alarm rang

To tell me that the day’s due

I hurry to meet the world

In a prim and proper way

And forget to enjoy my coffee

And the morning so gay

I curse and swear at the crowd

And honk my car at them

And the red on the traffic post

For ten minutes, remains the same

I worry about getting late

And speed past the trees so green

Never once stopping to notice

The birds busy to preen

I suddenly see the road

Glistening after the rain

Reflecting the various colours

Of the busy life so vain

The sky looks brilliantly blue

As I peer out to catch

The millions of sparkling raindrops

Playing a rainbow match

I wonder whether it is always

Such a beautiful sight

My everyday busy morning

Comprises moments so bright

As I step into the concrete

I promise myself to see

Tomorrow more leisurely

Nature’s myriad beauty

This post is published as a part of Blogeshwar and Anubhooti in an attempt to appreciate nature more in our daily lives, as we rush to meet our live’s commitments. In our daily grind, we forget that the bountiful beauty of nature can give us as much joy as anything else, when we crib about the unfairness of it all.
