I am Nature

I am nature
I was created by the greatest and the most powerful.
My master made me in perfect size and shape.
The stronger wind, the stronger trees,
The further sky, the greater length,
The more the storm, the more the strength.
I was complete.
My purpose was to serve greatly whoever comes to me.
I am nature.
Here, I sat proudly as invaders came to stay with a smile.
Took my children from my side
Then all those seasons, so long, so sad
Terror filled me all over but still, I shone brightly
My broken branches show the scars
I will remember everything
Ten thousand saw I at a glance
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
Your present generation comes
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
