Isn't it wonderful?

The genius of mankind is no match for the sheer brilliance of Nature

Isn't it wonderful
That even with its roots
Among the slimy marshes
The lotus
Can cleanse ones thoughts?

Isn't it wonderful
That even with its stem
Firmly entrenched in the ground
The rose
Can lift ones spirits?

Isn't it wonderful
That even with the air around
So dark and cold
The lily
Can light up ones heart?

Isn't it wonderful
That even with the surroundings
Full of sweat and toil
The jasmine
Can spread its fragrance?

Isn't it wonderful
That even after days
Of detached existence
The daisy
Can freshen up ones mind?

And isn't is amazing
That man
With his "ingenious" mind
Has replied with
Nothing better than
Detergent powder,
Alcoholic spirits,
Halogen lamps,
Synthetic perfumes
And room fresheners?

Vasu,
You have captured the true influence of nature on the soul. Next time you are in Colorado, I'll take you on a hike in the Rocky Mountains.
