Nature
The heavenly presence of nature’s serenity
Untouched by invention or signs of humanity
The joyful perfection of unfettered landscape
Shimmering waters that leave you agape
Birds flying softly wind in the air
Gold early sunlight crows’ noises to hear
Sweet smelling flowers surrender their scent
White clouds dotting blueness seem heaven sent
The respite of forest cool moss jutting trees
The mystery of quiet buzzing of bees
The roar of the ocean and crash of waves
Sunsets on horizon draw no less than raves
Sometimes in our hasty march straight through life
We don’t take the time-outs to see inspiring sights
Then in our stressed state we forget where to turn
When we need soothing from relentless churn
Always remember what’s waiting for you
Whenever you’re weary or you feel blue
Nature’s perfection holds gifts in store
Take time appreciate the abundance galore
Have you recently taken the time to partake of the beauty nature has to offer?
Has there ever been a time you found comfort in nature?
Might you take time every day to appreciate the bounty nature is?
What could that do for you?

I have always been a seeker, always looking for the answers to what seekers ponder. I can remember Dr. Maxwell Maltz and Psychocybernetics; Dr. Carl Rogers On Becoming a Person. Moving through my legal training and practicing law the focus was always about people and how to better their lives. All that searching, reading, studying and introspective work culminated in this collection of daily readings for seekers.
My work in the world has progressed from fighting legal cases to mediating divorces to helping people understand the essentials of relationship and collaborating to these poems. How can we collaborate effectively and work with each other in harmony to create the world we seek. How can we mindfully enable this world to become a place that works for all.
My prayer is that through introspection using these poems as a guide we can all grow together in making the world the Heaven on Earth we all aspire toward.
