Nature Leads Me
I walk while the leaves fall
I hope to share with someone
Watching nature speaking to someone
She brings winter in her beautiful way
I tell this story to friends
Where I go nature follows.
Snow melts, I love this interaction
I wait for a signal, I small bush
Now nature sings her beautiful song
The trees bloom and I have a need
To understand her movement and actions
Where I go nature follows.
I hear the sounds of nature, the drops cover
The trees, it rains before me quickly
I dream that others appreciate
A moment to smell the fresh air before
She surprises us with an elegant change
Where I go nature follows.
On this hill I see the horizon
Where the sun only shows itself
To remind me of my important journey
Laying in the grass, the stars form
I question a bit what things will come.
Where nature goes I follow.
