Mother Nature At Its Best Poem by Jaishree Nair

Stood on the balcony one morning;
To feel the cool breeze dawning;
The gentle wind caressing.....
Locks dancing and expressing..
Pure joy exhilarating!

The dew drops on leaves settling;
Like precious gems glistening;
A deep sigh of contentment from soul;
Tranquility spreading on the whole!

The sun hastening to spread it's glow
Hope and strength to let flow;
A lone star lost and hurrying-
To join it's friends scurrying.

The faint barking of a dog
Alerting something unusual.....
Chantings from a nearby temple
blanketing a serene seascape.


Newspaper boy on cycle -bells ringing;
The milkman; late perhaps; hurrying
intent to race against time;
The morning picture a sight cooling....

Enraptured and transfixed stood I;
Mindless of seconds ticking by...
Inhaling the fragrance of morning new...
Leaving behind the staleness of day gone...


The faint roar of the breakers renewing
Its declaration of love to its banks fawning;
A steaming cup of coffee in hand;
an added pleasure; welcoming
a pleasant day blooming...

Short of time; but still relishing
the taste of freshness lingering;
Mother nature at its best.....
Enveloping all in her warm embrace! ! ! !
