Nature's Poetry


Joyce Kilmer was absolutely right when he said, "I think that I shall never see a poem as lovely as a tree." Nature is not meant to be worshipped; nor is it meant to be destroyed. The Creator gave it to us to enjoy. The colors, textures, and sounds of nature remind us Whom we serve. I can sincerely agree that "Poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree."




This picture (well, any picture of dark, ominous clouds) makes my think of the 1933 song "Stormy Weather".



Spring!



A few weeks ago, I had a "hankerin" to see some pretty flowers and so took a nature walk. These are the cutest little blossoms and I just had to take a picture. Don't they make you smile?
