Natures first Kiss

A lake at a campside we stayed at in the summer — this is the view in the morning

And there it was, natures first kiss
Settling on my lips like morning dew

Clear and shiny drops, lingering, staying
Tasting of leaves and flowers, of flora and fauna,

Their colours a manifest of joy
The willows singing in the wind

Cradling into the stillness
Listening to the sound of love
Like a child looking at the world in wonder
A longing for more, a longing for an everlasting moment

When we see the world as if for the first time
When we see the world every day anew
When we are in awe about the little things
We have reached our goal, our destiny, to be

I have always liked words. To me they are secrets that, like the butterfly’s wings sometimes conceal their real beauty until we open up to them.
