Nature's Endless Gift Poem by Malabika Ray Choudhury

Nature... the surreal world of endless loving and giving...
the bottomless ocean, the limitless mountains,
the eternal sky, the everlasting beauty of crimson dawn,
gossamer rays of tangerine twilight.


I am thankful for the glorious clouds ~floating
in the palette of azure sky above ~ numerous
mysterious stars blinking and dazzling,
thankful for the bountiful ~ tall trees and plants,
I am thankful for the meandering rivers ~
whispering a cadence of enchanting sonata,
for chartreuse waterfalls ~ descending on coral rocks,
blushing flowers ~ sprinkling radiant hues of colours,
a string of musical rhapsody ~ created by crooning birds.


O The Infinite, O The Omnipotent,
I pray to thee in reverence - O The Creator,
I am in awe at your boundless energy!
my life is fulfilled when I become a part
of your magical creations -
my faith unbroken by any sufferings,
any obstacles I encounter in my path.
