RW9: "In Gratitude for Nature"

I wrote this during a visit to the beautiful rose gardens at the Franciscan Monastery in DC this past weekend.  I hope you enjoy, and that it inspires you to see the beauty of whatever nature surrounds you.

"In Gratitude for Nature"

Flowing water,
soothes my soul

Vibrant flowers,
bring light to my life

Rays of the sun,
awaken my body

Ever-growing green plants,
bring renewed hope to this world

In gratitude for beautiful nature,
an ever healing gift, present for us all
