Nature, old friend

When I look out of the window,
I see lush green grass that can distract the busiest townie,
A valley of wonders and peaceful living,
Which has always made this lone old lady a little less lonely.


The velvet covered mountains are the most humble neighbor.
Their silence show their respect and majestic is their hospitality.
The mist at dawn reminds me of distant memories,
The sunset at dusk dispel all melancholy.


My mind sometimes drift away to the past,
Cause it holds no anchor to the present time.
But the lil linnet by my window sings and brings me back - 
Cause it knows that I am happy when I am back home.


My mornings are brighter than ever,
The noontime hits me with nostalgic rapture,
Twilight tells me stories of the secrets of distant lands
And night is when I reminiscent of the beautiful day my mind has captured.


I have reached an impossible age now,
Whereas being the only soul living inside this wooded abode.
But the kaleidoscopic beauty of the nature around me gives me strength,
To carry on my journey through this forever-sunlit brick road.
