Nature whispers embrace life’s gentle flow
Don’t get wrapped up in sorrow
No matter how hard I try
It fails to sink in and leaves me hollow

Trees embrace change with open arms.
Teaches us to let go of the past
Live in today, savor the present’s vow,
But my clouds of regret don’t let happiness last

Beneath the trees, beside the tranquil lake
Flowers cheer, filling my heart with joy
Stay in this moment, never let tears deploy
It’s nature’s way of showing how to enjoy

As leaves tenderly release their hold on branches, gracefully descending to the ground, they beckon us to ponder the allure of letting go. Their descent imparts the wisdom to relinquish attachments with grace and trust mirrored in the falling leaf.

For new experiences, relationships, and beginnings to take root, we must wholeheartedly embrace the inevitability of change.

Thank you Jason Edmunds for inspiring this beautiful prompt that stirred my pen to craft poetry.
