LOST IN NATURE

By Nisha Bhandari

Standing on your balcony that day, A beautiful thought passed my way,

Nature is so calm and serene and you are surrounded with shades of green.

Looking down my eyes were caught on the bed of trees, 

I was wondering, was it made for the beautiful buzzing bees?

The backdrop of lush greenery and the aroma of mud wafting through the air. 

The fragrance of Lavender, the smell of blooming Roses, 

touched my heart in some kind, soothing my mind.

The breezy wind which blew seamlessly really put me at deep ease.

I am glad each and everything around you is a part of nature’s wing. 

From the chirping of Birds to the clouds on top of you that swing.

Looking at this view I painted a world within me. The flock of birds exercised their wings to kiss the sky to reach the pinnacle of the world.

What an exhilarating day it has been so far. 

No mounting conflicts, no stress, no negativity only the presence of purity around me. 

I wish everything stops here because I have met nature and you together which has been so refreshing to my soul. 

What else can I ask when I get everything today? 

Wallowing in the pleasure offered by the greenery around, I ventured. 

I am annoyingly emotional, I believed my thoughts were privy to me but nature knows it all. 

My gleaming eyes met shimmering sun rays and created a picture. 

It seemed like the looming trees behind hid a story that no one knew.

I reached the place where I could listen to my inner voice again. 

My heart bled and my eyes welled up reflecting the pain. 

Still, I was waiting believing somebody could hear me out. 

End of that day, when I was exhausted to the core, my mind became turbulent and I said to myself, there is one thing that I can strike a chord with and that’s only NATURE.
