I envy
Envy the dandelions
Who are free to travel
I envy
Envy the birds
Who can fly as far as they wish to be
I envy
The flowers
Who can bloom as they want
I envy
Envy the kids
Who can play freely in the playground
I envy
Envy the pilots
Who soar up without wings
Travelling higher in the skies
I envy
Envy the radio jockey
Who can speak clearly of their mind
I envy
Envy the creepers
Who can move anyway
I envy
Envy the weeds
Who can grow anywhere
Without caring about
I envy
Envy the waves
Who doesn’t care about retreating
Or a fall
I envy
Envy the oceans
Who meet different continents
Chat with enormous fishes
I envy
Envy the butterflies
Who can swoon upon the flowers in the garden
Carefree
Praising the beauty
So much to be envious around
I wonder
When did nature turn so attractive
Why was I lost in chaotic world
Since when I am running in mad race
That I forgot the beauty lay beside

the truly absurd fact, is when you eventually get to realise
those very same 'aspects' of existence, you envy
are looking back at you
envying, your sentient capacity
to communicate: your envy...
'before we search for the bandages
to cover our inadequacies,
we must realise, our capacity to self correct
is that essential asset, we need to appreciate: Most!'
(thanks for sharing,
an interesting subject)
In a mess of running
In this chaos
I wish I can choose stillness
A moment of peace
Better than city noises
A dim starlit sky
Than citylights
A peaceful beach
Than a posh market side
Thank you so much dear poet
Comments are always awaited to add to my perceptions
Lovely writing ! Really like this poem 🙂 nature is beautiful
It sure is dear yellowrose 😊 i can’t have enough of this beautiful nature…I really wish to see all wonders that the world beholds…
I think they say you need nature to stay sane. Maybe it's because nature stays at the same pace, whereas we run around like headless chickens.
So true Paul…nature is permanent though a change is impermanent…but we never look at the beauty it carries
I think we never really notice till the day nature introduces herself.
Wait for nature to play
It may play fair and square
And then you shall say
As you sow, so shall you reap
Thus realise it’s beauty sooner
That beauty is all around us but we sometime do not have time in our lives to realise it is there.
Andy
So true Andy…maybe a moment of stillness is all that we require…
no words.. it's really good! i lie the symbolism
