Something New

The water flows down the alpine landscape in the rainforest,                                                 

Trickling through every stone and rock,                                                                                              

As fauna thrives in the terrain,                                                                                                    

And flora sways in the brief mist,                                                                                                           

Over the years, trees ascend into the azure sky,                                                                            

Moss emerges through small fissures and crevices,                                                                   

Don’t you see this is what pleasure is?                                                                                               

Onto something more remote,                                                                                                               

The pristine sand of the desert forms storms in the wind,                                                        

Cacti blooms through the spring season,                                                                                        

Though weather is stable throughout the years,                                                                           

The blazing heat and sandstorms rarely die down,                                                                      

As gorgeous sienna buttes cast huge shadows,

Making homes for creatures, venomous creatures!

Away from all this beautiful action,

Cars and buses speed through the city,

Blinding lights and an abundance of stress,

Why not go out occasionally to nature itself?

Not just desert and rainforest,

Not just through the pixels on the screen.
