Enhancement?

by Odin odin@aflx.com — Read all 3,869 poems by Odin odin@aflx.com

With so much of society trying desperately to be something they are not, it’s refreshing to focus on that which needs no enhancement to feel whole and worthwhile. (Image by pinterest)

Enhancement?


Mountains and sea
Will live happily ever after
Knowing they are stone and water
Erosion and weather
Yin and yang

Oceans don’t complain
They tide high or low
Pressure released

Mountains reject weakness
They suck it up
Hold their strength tight
Occasionally send an offspring
To the valley floor
But resent?
Regret?
Bad moods because they might not have the biggest peaks?
I think not

Now humans?
Will the species ever accept itself?

Nature does have its moods
But it doesn’t long to be something it’s not
Sea = water
Stones = rock
Sun up
Sun down
Just being


No enhancement needed


None at all

No enhancement needed because nature it already enhanced enough, we just don't take notice, or worse, we don't learn the lessons that nature teaches us about just being ourselves, as you say, without enhancement. A provocative poem, some things need to be said.
