Keep
close to Nature's heart...and break clear away,
once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a
week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean. ~
John Muir That
delicate forest flower,
With scented breath and look so like a smile,
Seems, as it issues from the shapeless mould,
An emanation of the indwelling Life,
A visible token of the upholding Love,
That are the soul of this great universe. ~
William Cullen Bryant |
