Gift Nature’s Gift

by Austin Lopez

By brilliant light, summer’s breeze, calmly breezes summer, light brilliant, by.

Roots to live, dying trees sprout, inevitably sprouting trees dying, life to roots.

Ocean with waves, cresting the rise, powerfully rising the crest, waves with ocean.

Brewing a tempest, clouds darken, menacingly darkening clouds, tempest a brewing.

Winds blowing, to dancing birds, gracefully birds dance to, blow winds.

Quiet raging fire, consumes darkness, until darkness consumed, fire rages quiet.
