In honour of “Blog Action Day 2009” on Climate Change, here’s a poem I wrote a few months back.
All the photos except one were taken on my daily commute to work. The last was from a holiday trip. Guess which one…
Nature Performs, but who watches?
 |
The clouds dance on the stage of the sky Spinning, pirouetting in ever-changing forms No two moments the same |
| The wind sighs through grass and trees stirring them to join the dance with stately flowing movements that join sky and earth |
 |
 |
The sun glides in a procession of state gilding players and stage casting sunrise and sunset and all shades in between |
| Silence falls and all becomes still a moment out of time rare, powerful and intense but no-one observes |
 |
 |
The dance resumes Sun, wind and sky perform in a ballet that will never be seen again But the audience is rushed and busy The beauty, unobserved, lost to time, flows on |
