Inspired by Reena’s Xploration Challenge #359 &
Moonwashed Weekly Prompt – Splendid
a splendid view
draws me in
the calm dark
and striking light
it heightens my senses
yet clarifies my understanding of self
and the world surrounding me
i bask in the connection i feel
nature holding me to her bosom
safety and nourishment extended to my being

A breathtakingly beautiful description of the human-nature connection. Your words evoke a sense of serenity, wonder and oneness with the natural world. The way you describe nature embracing and nourishing you is deeply moving and relatable.

Yes, I feel like being in nature is feeling safe. Well, not during a hurricane or a tornado, but you know, a jaunt in the forest or on the beach. Thanks for reading and your comment, Diana!
