Nature

By Grayson Franke

From the shrubs to the trees, nature rides the calming breeze.

From the wind blowing ever more, off the mainland to the shore.

From the sea with lots of waves, nature rests its gentle gaze.

From the green to the blue, nature is all around you.

 

From the rocky cliffs above, the sky watches down with love.

In the sky where clouds run free, night and day switch eternally.

From the night to the brush, ugliness nature seems to crush.

From the bushes to the undergrowth, nature cites its faithful oath.

 

See the birds flying through the air, gracefully gliding without a care.

Savage predators, birds of prey, rapidly hunting the day away.

Fish swim in the ocean blue, sharks staying far away from you.

Animals all around you, let nature’s beauty surround you.

 

Curse you smoke, confound you!

Let us protect this green and blue, or pollution will surround you.
