Were I a poet I'd write of Nature's beauty around me <br />The songs of the birds on bush, hedge and tree <br />The flowers of the garden so lovely to see <br />The beauty of Nature to look at is free. <br /> <br />The babble of the waterways the brook, creek and rill <br />That flow to the river downland from the hill <br />That flows to the coast all the way to the sea <br />One of Nature's Goddess wonders none as great as she. <br /> <br />Of singing her praises could one ever tire <br />The beauty of Nature the poets inspire <br />To pen their poems to her of her praises they do sing <br />The beauty of Nature outlives her every Spring. <br /> <br />And though all of her life forms to life come and go <br />Goddess of Nature whose secrets anybody does not know <br />Will live on forever she will never die <br />Unlike all other mortals such as you and I.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-beauty-of-nature-the-poets-inspire/
