The music of life



Is the breath of the earth



The constant drumming of nature



The beating of your heart





The music of life



Is the roar of a waterfall




The freedom in a turbulent scream




Of wind in a cliff’s plummet






The music of life




Is the peace in a rushing stream




A human pulse throbbing in time




To the earth’s





Constant





Patient




Core.

The author's comments:
I wrote this poem hoping people will understand the intertwined being of man and nature, and how it makes a chorus of life that penetrates the soul and lives within the very heart of it, combining heartbeats and waterfalls and beautiful things to make the music of life.
