In prelude to love & nature,
I have taken precausions.
Not because I dread either,
But because I prefer them.
Some people use those words,
Much too casually.
But I have faith in those words,
And wish to believe.
Intelligence and wisdom are not the same,
As anyone well knows.
I prefer wisdom rather than intelligence,
And that is why I believe.
Love is something precious to me,
And should not be trivialized by anyone.
Nature is all around us,
Which God has devised.
I believe in love,
And I believe in nature.
My heart -felt wish,
Is for everyone to believe too.
