We Learn About Nature Poem by Francis Duggan

We learn about Nature something new every day
And of her so much to learn only true for to say
And the more we learn of her the more we realize
That of her we know little this not a surprise

Of Nature's creatures our wonder only does grow
Of the secret ways of herbirds and animals we never will know
Those who believe there is all there is to know about Nature believe their own lie
We do learn from her until the day we do die

Unrivalled as the World's most creative power
From a tiny seed she can create a beautiful flower
And as the animal or the fish or the tree or the bird of song
We are part of Nature and to her we belong

Whether we are buried or cremated and to ashes do burn
We are born of Nature and to her Earth Mother return
We are as much a part of Nature as the birds or the bees
And the fish of the waters or the animals, bushes and trees.
