<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Gaze adoringly not at the beauty of a fine woman</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">But at nature</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">For nature never grows old</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">It does not wrinkle </span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Nor fade with age</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Its grass does not gray</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Like a once alluring mane</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Its mountains do not sag</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Like the breasts of old age</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Its fruits do not turn sour</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Unlike those of human creation</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Its tears of rain full of growth and promise</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Not pity and pain</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Nature is everlasting</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">A source of beauty and inspiration </span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Giving vitality and youth to its audience</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Nature gives, it does not take</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">It replenishes all </span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Not only what it desires to make</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">There is no doubt in nature's love nor a pout on its Lips*</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">Rather a constant ray of energy and bliss</span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;">All things die but nature.</span><span style="font-family: Noteworthy-Light; font-size: x-large; line-height: 15px;"> </span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Noteworthy-Light; line-height: 15px;"><br /></span>
</span><br />
