A Poem About Nature Poem by Benjamin Chiu Uy

A Poem About Nature

I am nature given,
A complete child just like sunlight and rain water,

Iruled as god given earth and speciles,
Just like the plants and the trees,

Just like the animals and the insects,
That crawled and seek,

Just like the birds and the skies,
That competes for the freedom of the air,
And a fountain to quince my thirsts,

A granary in the rice fields,
A place to hide from the winds and the storms,

And the terrors from my every other competitor
Like me are trying to survive,

And every other day to look at the sun,
To ponder on our own uniqueness,

The differences between life and death,
The difference between peace and compromise,

The difference between my allies and my enemies,
The difference between harmony and destruction,

And every night to listen to the winds,
And my own heartbeats and compose my poems

To love my children,
To honor my wife,

To honor this place Earth,
However nature's endowed this tenure must be.
