Nature

Nature

I do not live in myself,

I have become part of what is around me.

To me, mountains are a feeling,

The noise of cities is not torture:

I do not see anything to hate in Nature.

I want to be a link in the fleshy chain,

Among creatures, where the soul can flee,

The hills, plains,

The blue of the sky, the ocean,

The sweet flow of the river kissing its bank,

The stars, or the moon mingle,

Not in vain.

I love Earth for its earthly sake.
