LOOKING INTO NATURE

On the path of the light and shade of the mountains -
sometimes one has to stand and watch a game.
A beautiful, unique harmony of melody.
There is calculation and simplicity in the game,

which remains invisible to human eyes.

The treasure of nectar is of immense sweetness.
The unknown simple flower, whose fragrance -
is a simple attraction to pull us closer.
The bee that roams with the butterfly also knows -
that everyone has an equal right to relish nectar.

In a fleeting moment of honeyed quenching of thirst,
a heavenly feeling of knowing each other renews.
Will the butterfly, busy suckling nectar, remember -
that momentary bliss of being close with the flower?
It is immortalized in the crevices of its memory.

The joy of giving away, spreading every particle,

of oneself in this world; The satisfaction of letting -

it go away, only the flower knows.
So many lessons remain outside the pages,
which are only to be found in nature.

To develop it within, one must have a loving heart.
