Love In Nature

When I looked upon that mountain,  

And how the clouds gently smother its peak and flow away, 

I wonder how beautiful is such an encounter, 

Love of a moment, 

Remembrance of a lifetime.

When I looked upon that stream of water, a rivulet, 

And how it ran it's soothing touch as it flew, o

Over the mountain from top to bottom.

Another kind of temporary love, 

Whose essence lingers for long.

When I looked at that dewdrop, 

Losing its shape beautifully on the petal, 

And finally its identity, 

Making the petal shine.

What a sacrificial love it is, 

A moment's surrender to the other, 

Glorifying the lover for a long time.
