When nature speaks

I watch you from a distance every week

Waiting for the opportunity to speak

While the waves so confidently exhaled their mist on you

Allowing the sea

Dressed in its blue robe

To gently caress your feet

*

You sit by the shore for a few minutes

Teasing the water with your beauty

It would kindle up a tune with the wind

Eventually erupting into a symphony

*

If the sea can find a way to communicate

What reason did I have to wait

I want to remind you that you’re not alone

The universe has denied your request to leave this home

*

You are loved and cherished, I speak for all of us here

Your eyes smile for you even when your lips don’t move

Look how the sun paints a dark umber on your skin

Varnishing it with a glossy shimmer whenever it is beaming

*

I love it when you come to spend time outside

I’m always excited about having good company

Now that you know your presence is appreciated

I hope we can continue to build an even stronger friendship
