In Nature

Words by Yewande Akinse
Art by Morganite

arabian almonds linger the earth
in multicolor of white-pinkish bloom
people and plants populate every breath
at sunrise she elopes to hill room
basking in solitude of mountain loom
at the peak of forests is the lion
imposing presence on the horizon
in nature, the questions exceed answers
nature is man's source, sustenance and scion
nature is acceptance and is master
