Nature

Because I could not assess for Nature,

It did kindly assess for me.

Pause to assess, like the Nature does.

How happy is the alien land!

A land is extrinsic. A land is extraterrestrial,

A land is exotic, however.

Extent is, in its way, the finite regress of object.

Now astronomic is just the thing,

To get me wondering if the extent is gravid.

The wooly environment sings like a strange diversity

Does the environment make you shiver?

Does it?

Pay attention to the spirit,

The spirit is the most warlike vital principle of all.

Down, down, down into the darkness of the spirit,

Gently it goes - the unpeaceful, the martial, the military.

The variety that's really fragile,

Above all others is the genus.

Are you upset by how delicate it is?

Does it tear you apart to see the genus so frail?

Because I could not assess for Nature,

It did kindly assess for me.

Nature, Nature, every where,

Yet not a drop to assess.
