Kindred Spirits

I believe nature is our teacher
that there are lessons in the trees...
in the flowers...
in the animals...
in the oceans...
in the seas...

Teaching us life is beautiful...
that it’s wonderful to be alive.
Teaching us how we need each other
in order to survive.

I believe we’re kindred spirits...
nature
you and I....
meant to live harmoniously
with the wind...
the stars...
the sky...

But some of us have not been listening...
while others disobey...
Some have simply forgotten...
others...have gone astray.

Yet nature is relentless
She knows if we eventually heed her call
and practice the lessons she is teaching
She’ll make kindred spirits of us all.

Kindred Spirits

I like this poem very much an excellent read. I hope also that many others get to understand their role in conjunction with mother nature and more condusive ways can be found to live in better harmony with the world.
