Whispers of Nature

The wind slipped sideways through the pine
Not quite a whisper. Not a line.
It hummed a sound the roots once caught,
Off-key, half-lost, and barely thought.

The moss had climbed a chunk of stone,
Like it had grown there all alone.
A shadow moved, or maybe not
Still as a name we once forgot.

The river muttered glints of light,
For storms gone quiet and stolen nights.
Its pulse ran cold through grain and sand,
It reached for something missed the hand.

A crow cracked out a ragged sound,
Too sharp for sky or solid ground.
And something curled beneath the bark,
A name long lost still faint and stark.

Then dusk arrived in tangled lace,
It touched the field, then left no trace.
And all we catch, or half believe,
Is wind pretending it can breathe.

You managed to capture nature, not just in words, but in feelings, sounds, sensations, thoughts. This ode truly shows a deep admiration for nature, for the world. As if it's laced with magic.
thank you for your beautiful words.

That’s such a heartfelt response — thank you. Nature has this quiet, sacred rhythm that speaks without needing to be loud, and I tried to listen closely while writing. I’m so glad you felt the magic in it — not just in the imagery, but in the presence of it all. Your words feel like a gentle echo of that same awe. Truly grateful.

This is a really beautiful poem, I mean really. First off the rhythm and rhyme just flows, carrying one along as if on a stream. I am a lover of nature, can feel Spirit even in inanimate objects. For me your poem strongly hints at that. It makes one look around and really see. I have read it thru again and again. I’m glad to have found your writing.

Your poem is absolutely breathtaking. "Whispers of Nature" doesn't just describe the world — it listens to it. The imagery is so vivid, it felt like nature itself was whispering forgotten stories through your lines. Each stanza carried a quiet melancholy and a haunting grace. Truly, your words don’t just speak — they echo. Thank you for capturing the soul of the natural world so beautifully.
