Take me back to that field of blue with sweet scents of wildflowers. Take me back to that warm southern sun and warm breeze. Take me back to the youthful mind with no worries. Take me back to that Texas sunset with sky's that go forever. I want to watch those bees and butterflies enjoy the never-ending hills of blue bonnets. Take me back to that place where heaven meets earth. If it was my last day on earth, this is where I'd want to be. Take me back.

Take me back
Pink White Red Peach Yellow It seems like she had every color you could think of. She took pride in her roses. To the point I'd never set foot in that garden unless she asked me to. So from a distance I would admire the beauty of her hard work. Watching the bees move from blossom to blossom like it was a buffet of pollen and nectar. Watching the birds swoop in and pluck a worm from the dark rich soil. I close my eyes for a moment and smell the sweet musky perfume of those roses as they pass by floating on the warm breeze. I lay on the cold concrete under the edge of grandpa's boat because it was the closest shade to the rose garden. That was my perch, to admire the beauty of nature that my grandma worked so hard to create. Back then I had no idea what a worry was. I hope this memory is one i never forget.

Grandma's Rose Garden
The forest above you reflects off like a mirror. Your banks are narrow but very curvy. Your cold water flows silently until you meet the rocks in front of you. The rocks create the most relaxing sounds as you flow through and over them, for all the surrounding nature to hear. Squirrels frolic at your banks, birds bath in your clear waters. The trees above sway in the wind leaves still falling as winter comes. Soon you will be frozen, at least your top. Your waters will never stop flowing blow. Its always a pleasure sitting by you and writing.

"When life seems tough, nature becomes the silent healer—calming the mind, soothing the soul, and reminding us that even storms pass."

Nature: The Silent Healer
We humans have messed around With Mother Nature and her eco-system For years and years Decades and decades Centuries and centuries Felling gazillions of trees Turning forests into concrete jungles Filling ponds, lakes, rivers and seas With tons and tons of toxic waste Releasing enough carbon monoxide into the air To wreck the entire troposphere The list of sins against Nature goes on and on With no end in sight Given all this, who are we to complain When Mother Nature has had enough And unleashes her fury on us Through earthquakes and tsunamis Avalanches and volcanoes Hurricanes and tornadoes Floods and droughts And so on Remember, Mother Nature has blessed us With oodles of riches In the form of plants and trees Mountains and forests Ponds, lakes, rivers, seas and oceans And last but not the least, oxygen! It is time we show her some gratitude And more importantly, respect and compassion And stop messing around with the eco-system Remember the famous old saying Live and let live It doesn't mean infrastructure shouldn't be developed We can build roads We can build a railway network We can build houses We can build schools and colleges We can build hospitals We can build libraries However, as my grandfather used to say There is a limit to everything And we should also plant trees Build gardens and parks Switch to renewable sources of energy And cut down severely on emissions A balance should be maintained After all, messing around with Mother Nature Will only bring about our own downfall There have been enough natural disasters Caused by human negligence Let's not add to the list Which is already longer than the river Nile!

Why We Shouldn't Mess Around with Mother Nature

Its beams pull at the heart strings, each a different noise. No ray on a futile descent. All with purpose and poise. Each stream of light reinvents, the palette of colors our earth bares. Truly nothing compares.

The Sun
She used to be celebrated. Thru water splashes, river streams and water fountains. As the mountains changed to their greeneries. A scenery that always compels true children of the planet to want to run across it's open fields. What happened to her Joy's ?Nothing really. There's even rumours about her even forgetting her origin's. Truth is thru climate change, She also evolved way passed the comfort norms of the rest of the human species. As the rest of the nature side still rejoices while the plants, trees, flowers still flourish. With everything else still sticking to their traditions she's still celebrated. Spring - Swoo

Spring
Water longed and gasped at the sunset colors above her lapping them up in her mists and rolling waves she took these tumbling breaths to exhale the palette across the bare sands, persuading them over and over again through time till they too tumbled as grains in the radiant slurry "There now, Earth and Sky. This is how we are One."

Mother Ocean
You say life is a disaster I tell you not Have you watched the sun rise up? Have you seen the flowers at early dawn; The way the face of the sun is seen glowing in the dew drop. Take a moment to see life is the world around you. You say life is a disaster I tell you not Have you smelt the earth at the birth of rain? Have you let the wind give you a loving embrace; As the sweet smell lingers around and calms every soul it touches. Stop whatever you are doing to see life is the world around you. You say life is a disaster I tell you not Have you seen the moon kiss the night sky And how it brings every hidden star alive; The way it lights up the sky and illuminates the beauty of the dark night. Take a moment for yourself  and see that life is the world around you. You say life is a disaster I tell you not Have you seen the colours on the butterfly? Have you watched a tiger prancing by? They both are different in size but yet so majestic in their own way. Take a moment Take your time Take note of what’s passing by. You say life is a disaster I tell you To feel the wind, it is waiting to embrace you. Admire the beauty in nature when the sun is born. Take a deep breath of the earth and watch it as it moves. Use your sense, Use them all And let your restless soul calm down. You say life is a disaster I tell you not Life is You and everything around you. There is beauty in every little being; Even if life is a disaster

Even if life is a disaster
Even you're seems a fiery giant, I couldn't resist myself to come near you. Even your precence just scorching during summer, But still your beauty capture my heart everyday. Yesterday, I look for something beautiful, I look for something magical and enchanting. But when my eyes sees you standing in the corner, The feeling of love arise in my body. Your spectacular color is magnificent, You provides welcome shade in a warm climate. Your red stems of the bloom clusters command attention, By that, You attract me more and more. Summer season will ended too soon, I'll surely miss, your famous scarlet petals. I'll surely miss to hangout with you, I promise to wait for your bloomming season again.

Flame Tree
A walk through the Gardens by the Bay And the super tree Grove skyway All by my own I felt it was enough for me To take it all by my own Such beauty and escasty To find the love in nature Is what life had given me A gift of a new place A garden which is never Enough to visit one more time The winds kissing me all across Keeping no barrier in a foreign land! A place which still makes me happy when I visualize back and forth. The cool breezes and the greenary with the hint of flowers Unique in it's own way No comparison Yet beautiful love All throughout :)

Gardens By The Bay
Sitting under a tall, rigid pinetree Staring at God's everlasting piece of art Brings euphoria to a restless and broken heart.

Haiku and Nature
Walk with a mountaineer She will always be near When feeling fear, She will comfort you dear Fly with a mountaineer She will catch you when you fall, She will give you all She will take you high She will give you the sky Fall with a mountaineer She will not let you cry Promise, she's not telling a lie Fall in love with a mountaineer Fall in love with me. <3

Love a mountaineer
Meron akong nakita Dalwang taong masaya Sa tuktok ng bundok, magkahawak-kamay pa Tanong sa sarili, ito ba'y pag-ibig? Dahil hindi na maitago ang kilig. Ngunit biglang ginising ng lamig Pagmulat ng mata Kasama'y hanap na Ang nakitang dalawa Ang totoo ay mag-isa.
