No Harm

light,
morning patrol
lift for your head
lift for your soul

grass,
sharp and intense
tickle for your shin
tickle for your sense

birds,
chirp and chat to mates
tune for your ears
tune for your traits

sunshine,
contrast causing art
warmth for your skin
warmth for your heart

wind,
touch of distant visit
shift for your feet
shift for your spirit

clouds,
form distinct views
play for your eyes
play for your muse

rain,
drops from the past
soak for your face
soak for your cast

forests,
rich in tree and flower
essence for your breath
essence for your power

darkness,
plain and hidden aligned
rest for your bones
rest for your mind

nature,
oh nature.
words will never do
no harm for giving
no harm for you.
