Natures Greatest Adversary

Natures Greatest Adversary
Wonderful, Beautiful, Exquisite
Sun beaming, birds chirping
Leaves blowing, trees beckoning

Humble before its greatest adversary
This beauty, this luscious terrain
Spells God’s name forwards and backwards

It can tell the story of 1000 words
With one glance, but look again
The tail is almost told

He breaks, he cuts, he slashes
Destroys everything in his path
Nothing will stop this ruthless beast
Overcoming what its set out to do

When it is done

We look around,
What dismay is lead upon the land

It is unpredictable
Not knowing when it will strike
We have to watch our backs, for when we turn around

There it is, staring us straight in the face
Uncertain of what to do next,
We back away cautiously

Man is an evil thing
Lying, deceiving, cheating
Getting what it wants is what makes it
Nature’s greatest adversary
