As I walk through the wooded autumn forest, br and take in the awesome humbling beauty, of a scene, br painted with the myriad colours of nature's pallette, br I am overcome yet again, with a speechless wonder br at the soul uplifting serenity and restful ambience... br I am overcome with a deep joy.... br br as I inhale the fragrance of the falling autumn leaves br and savour the satisfying springiness under my feet, br and drink in the cleansing and purifying air under the trees, br and wonder at the perfection of the beautiful flowers in every hue and colour br I am like a child with a new toy br br as I marvel at the variety and vastness of the plant world br at the perfection of every tight bud and every leaf unfurled br at the shapes and the sizes of every plant and every shrub br at the array of flowers displayed to perfection in a pot or a tub br I close my eyes and listen to my brain which cajoles me to enjoy br br as I feel the green spiky grass cushioning my eagerly wandering steps br the butterflies fluttering about and the birds singing as if in duress br the children running and skipping with arms stretched wide br the branches of the fruit rees bowing as if to hide br the bountiful harvest of ripe and glistening fruit br I am speechless with the wonder of it all br br If the maker can make it all so beautiful br how much beauty would be in Him br if his creations are so peace giving, br how much serenity would dwell in Him, br and I close my eyes and pray br and thank him for giving us this wonderful earth br where we dwell.......... br this environment is for us to enjoy br the.the trees are not to fell br the forests our our national heritage br not to colonize and sell..... br so protect our natural bounty br guard it jealously and well....
