You hear Nature's voice in the river that ever flows on towards the sea <br />A voice destined to live forever that has lived for untold centuries <br />From the foothills of the high country it babbles downhill night and day <br />By groves and by ditches and hedgerows to saltwater it winds it's way. <br /> <br />You hear Nature's voice in her birdsong their music carrying in the breeze <br />The sounds that the freshening winds make rustling in the leaves of the trees <br />Some of the happier sounds of Nature though to Nature there's another side <br />When Nature she shouts out her anger all others from her seek a safe place to hide. <br /> <br />When Nature she grows very angry the fear of the World is in her cry <br />She shakes the Earth flattens great buildings she roars and her lightning flashes in the sky <br />She crackles when her forests burn leaving blackness and smoke everywhere <br />With the power of Nature in a fury none other can hope to compare. <br /> <br />You hear Nature's voice in all Seasons Winter, Spring and Summer and Fall <br />And you hear Nature's voice in the night-time when her nocturnal creatures do call <br />Nature's voice will live on forever 'tis something not destined to die <br />As Nature herself does not have a time span as such are for mortals such as I.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/you-hear-nature-s-voice/
