IN NATURE’S PEACE AND SILENCE,
TOTALLY AWAY FROM THE WORLDLY VIOLENCE,
GIVE YOURSELF A BIT OF TIME,
LENDING YOUR EARS TO THE NATURE’S RHYME.
RHYME OF THE LEAVES THAT RUSTLE,
RHYME OF THE FRESH WATERS AS THEY HUSTLE,
RHYME OF ALL THE BIRDS THAT TWEET,
OH! IT SOUNDS REALLY SWEET.
IN NATURE’S BEAUTY AND GRACE,
TOTALLY AWAY FROM WORLD’S RUTHLESS FACE,
KEEPING ALL THE BRUTALNESS ASIDE,
LET’S SINK ALONE WITH NO ONE BESIDE.
WHEN DISTRAUGHT AND HOPELESS ,
MIND FULL OF TENSION AND STRESS,
JUST STROLL IN A GARDEN AND AT A GLANCE,
FLOWERS WILL THRILL YOU WITH THEIR SPRIGHTFUL DANCE.
IN NATURE’S DIVINE BOWER,
FORGETTING ABOUT EVERY EARTHLY POWER,
BEING HAPPY AND JOYFUL FROM WITHIN,
FORGETTING ABOUT EVERY PAST SIN, LET’S ENTER IN.
THE CREATION OF NATURE IS A MIRACULOUS ONE,
GET INTO IT THERE IS GREAT FUN,
FUN WHICH WILL NEVER DIMINISH
FROM YOUR HEART AND SOUL.
-Nikesh Lilani.(Also published in times of India nie)
Experiencing these profound moments of peace, happiness, or wellness in the context of nature is a universal event, and demonstrates that contact with nature is an integral part of our well-being as humans. Based on personal experience, once I’m “outside” or with nature, everything that burdens or worries me are somewhat magically stripped off my mind, the serenity of nature takes over my mind.
This poem clearly depicts that experience. Great post! Keep it up, Nikesh!
