Blurred Existence Poem by Noel Tupan

I make romance to the serenity
of nature
As I take refuge in the shadows
of the trees
Feels the tender puff
of the zephyr
And listen to the tweets
of the birds

I could smell the fragrance
of the flowers
While watching the gliding leaves
of the plants
That dances along with the blow
of the gentle breeze
As it slowly falls and touches the arms
of the grassy land

The butterflies smelling the fragrance
of the blooming floras
The honeybees temptingly nipping
of the flowers’ sweet nectar
I see the recurrent leaps
of the grasshoppers
And the beautiful flock formation
of the hovering dragonflies

Never will I be tired to embrace
this wonderful gift from God
And will always be grateful
with this pleasure I have
But in the morning when I rise
I run outside and look around
The enthralling panorama of nature
it all exists, but only in my dream
