It wasn’t until
I came to know
The grace of nature
And stood
Looking back
That I saw.
In town
I learned
To contain my energy
And protect my senses
From a constant barrage
Of human “clutter”.
While standing in nature
Clothed
Or not
I learned to open
All of my senses
Filters discarded
To bask in the radiance
Of mother natures influence.
I stand here
Holding one heart open
For me
And you. July 11, 2008
