Contemplation of Earth’s Beauties

'Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will ensure as long as life lasts. There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature: The assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after winter.' ~Rachel Carson.

'I am alone. I come to know:

Earth's beauties. I enter with love:

A calmness settles me. I come to know:

I am never. And never will be. Alone.' ~Ally.
