Warm tranquility soaking into my skin,
The earth's gentle breath on my face,
I walk among fragrant green plants in the moonlight.
Barefoot with my hair unbound, I feel
That I'm one with all that surrounds me.

I reach to caress the delicate velvet of a flower,
Careful that my touch does not mar its perfection.

The trees hold a secret power within;
I can feel their wisdom and grace.
Everywhere, simple miracles are in my sight.
Reverently, I pay my respects and kneel
Before Nature's beauty which astounds me.

I lie down and wonder, wrapped in the silence of the hour,
Whether the stars I admire return my affection.

o my, well, I've never been good at commentary, suffice it to say, I am more drawn by the voice of the poet rather than the words themselves, though it is in the words that the voice is given.

I do not know you, but I get a sense of internalization from this write that speaks from the heart, and that, that is where I believe true poetry comes from. So to that end, you have made your mark. Thank you. ~b
