Nature's Daughter

I am a child of the nature,
The nature with flowers and trees,
The nature lives in my heart,
The nature is me.
My first steps fell under its shelter,
On the soft grass and leaves,
My first touch landed on the flowers,
The flowers felt like silk.
Now when tears flood down my cheeks,
Or my cheeks stretch into a smile,
All it takes is a healing sense of nature,
To walk in the happiness aisle.
The nature dwells in my breath,
Whenever I may die,
My love for nature stays with me,
My love shall always fly.
