Natures Cure

fallen leaves that molder
a mystic sanctum floor
beams of sun light probing
visible pollen spores
varied scents merged
bitter to the taste
sounds spurt, then fade,
most almost never heard
scant foliage seen,
great pillars fill this hall
ghostly shadows almost hide a horde,
of creatures large and small

an outcrop becomes my stool,
it's touch cool and hard
I visit friends of forgotten memories
and laugh at all the fools
shifting past a burdensome puzzle
creation's tranquillity soothes
I gaze at mother natures world
awed at the theater before me.

I leave natures retreat
it's antidote within my soul
life's labyrinth puzzle torn
grateful for natures cure
