The Poem you see below, I wrote several years ago..
Nature Heals ~ Sometimes when the world gets too much As our inner mind chews over such and such Take yourself off for a walk ~ When the doubts roll in Creating that internal din Take yourself off for a walk ~ Breathe deep that fresh clear air Release your worries and the worlds despair As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Observe all nature and how she grows Pick wild berries from among the hedgerows As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Release the tension with every stride Hug a tree, let go of pride As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Ask Mother Nature to let you see All of her wonders created for thee As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Look to the skies At the Rainbow she supplies As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Nature gives and Nature takes Balancing ALL as she creates As you take yourself off for a walk ~ Peace fills the mind as time has flown Blending in Nature as you have grown I so Enjoyed My Walk!
This week as we see yet more restrictions come into play here in the UK. I was able to take myself off for a walk. And with my Granddaughters help we collected leaves… She made several craft items with hers.. With the leaves left over I made a collage of leaves… Beauty is to be found everywhere, even when we uncover those ugly creepy crawlies which live in the dark beneath them. ALL have purpose. We may not like them, but they are put here for a reason…
Remember as the Darkness unfolds it is also moving us out of our comfort zones. We often like to stay fixed in our safe environments, and not challenge the status quo. We become fixed in our ways and would sooner not look under the leaves to find those creepy crawlies of the world. Our experiences are also moving us to see beyond, as we dare look beneath the forest floor. Because every once and a while out pops some miracles, which we may have missed, if we had not been looking beneath the shadows of the Forest..
The Magic will continue to push on through. Keep focused on the Magic and the Miracles that Life brings us. Even though at times, we have to face both the Good Bad and Ugly in Life. Know it has come to wake us up from the illusion of this Matrix, and to acknowledge our own Sovereignty of our own Health and Humanness. It comes to show us our mistakes, and it comes to show us how we can Create a better future as we learn from those mistakes…
🍁 It is time for you to turn over the first Leaf 🍁 I hope you collect many more along the Forest Floor… I will keep turning them over to see just what lies beneath waiting to be discovered.

Wonderful poem. I like that leaf collage. They are claiming spikes in the big C here again with the freeway signs telling people to stay home. As much as I don’t like heavy traffic and getting stuck in traffic jams, there has been a lot more traffic and I’ve been in a few traffic jams the past few weeks. It’s refreshing to see people ignoring the signs and our governess. We have the same magic mushrooms in the higher elevations. They need to work overtime these days.

The poem invited and allowed me to rest into Mother Nature’s arms. Hug a tree, let go of pride – this line pulled me in humility as amazingly shown by trees, even the most magnificent ones don’t show any pride. I love the leaf creations, I am now inspired to make one for myself.
This magic will push through – I love this reminder, helps me relax in the knowing and trust the process.

Oh no😯Tier 3?😖 I was wondering from your posts if that might be the case. Wasn’t sure of your exact location. My sister shares the pain up in Rochdale and my mum’s in Tier 2 in Cheshire. Tier 3 is a horrible place to be and seems very cruel since as you say no one allowed in your home but so many other venues can stay open where strangers meet in closed spaces. I rage against the machine over this for everyone in this position. I’m currently in Tier 1 but probably not for much longer. Doesn’t matter though, I still rage for those in higher tiers. Especially when the rule makers break the rules with no consequence and they’re talking about the police invading homes at Christmas to break up family gatherings. Still by then we will likely all be equal in Tier 3 together to be isolated and controlled with threats of fines and jail whilst the elite rulers do as they please 😤 I hope you’re bearing up ok under the strain Sue. And remember there are NO tiers here on W/P! Here we can be together as much as we want so hopefully we can really each other and keep each other strong and sane through our time if trial and tribulation!

He knew exactly which ones to pick, and when we were children we would have mushroom steaks, some field mushrooms as big as small frying pan… We would also go collecting berries, and Hazel nuts… Making elderberry and elderflower wine… 🙂 Nature is both beautiful and at the same time dangerous… She teaches us many lessons… And one must always respect her…
Thank you Michel, I hope you enjoy a beautiful weekend also.. 😀

Hi Sue,
This verse resonates, thank you.
For me, ‘take yourself out for a walk’ has been synonymous with self reflection. This practice can really support if one perseveres.
Self Reflection could be a process in which one could stand at the edge of a black hole and nudge all thoughts, both good or bad, into that. Over time these thoughts then no longer hold their power over oneself and one gets the chance of transforming into one’s authentic self.
Blessings
Shakti

Walking, contemplating, and observing in Nature allows us to rebalance, as we focus upon that all powerful source of creation, that carry’s on growing, evolving, BE-ing without any help from Man-kind… And when we re-connect back into that space, we too feel connected back to Self…
Thank you Shakti for your own observations my friend… I appreciate your thoughts 😀

Wonderful words, Sue. None quite as nice as the ones you had/share about being with your granddaughters “With the leaves left over I made a collage of leaves… Beauty is to be found everywhere, even when we uncover those ugly creepy crawlies…” The collage is beautiful, and beauty can be so perfect and easy to see because of its beauty, but also even the ‘ugly creepy crawlies’ can be beautiful too when their shade of light falls on them 🙂 Nature has a way, as you always eloquently state, and yes it is healing – we just have to let it. Cheers to you and your wisdom, and hope all remains well for you.

Thank you Randall, yes Nature has her way, and always will come out on top, despite man’s attempts of destruction..
I am so pleased I got that special time with my Granddaughter, for now we are in Lockdown measures here in my area again.. Where I am not allowed any one into my home or garden for a month.. the rules here are not making sense… As we can still go to gyms, hair salons, the cinema… theatres and libraries.. These rules are especially hard for those whom live alone.. My spirit has been weary of late.. But I am not allowing it to be broken, for that is the intent… I will rise…. like many more will, like a phoenix from out of the ashes… To rebuild A New Earth, once based on Love and Respect.. Not ” Dominance and Manipulation” 🙂
Many thanks dear Randall.. So good to see you and thank YOU.. 🙂

I am late here and everywhere but will catch up soon. I loved reading this. Yes, nature is a great refresher and shows us that the good, bad and ugly work in unison to push the Universe forward.

Dearest Marlene.. you are never late.. You arrive just when needed, just when the Universe needs us to meet my friend.. Growth is painful… and these new birthing pains are nothing new.. Nature is my saviour… and I so enjoyed my walk with our Granddaughter…
Sometimes we all need to take a few steps backwards, 🙂 in order to move forward.. Nature also shows us it has causalities along the way… Disappointments, as well as expectations. Nature shows us how the death of one, often provides life for many others…
And the world right now is fighting for its Life and Liberties… Happy sewing dear Marlene… much love your way and thank you for your patience… I took a longer break from blogging than expected.. ❤ 🙏💚

This poem is apt for the times right now. Times are doubtful and uncertain, but nature around us carries on growing, changing, evolving.
I read about the restrictions in the UK in the news over here in Australia. It seems things are tough over there and hopefully things settle down soon. That is lovely you went out on a walk with your granddaughter and collected some autumnal leaves – and such a lovely photo of your leaf arrangement. It’s amazing how leaves can last even after fallen from their trees. I remember at one point I put leaves in between books and used them as bookmarks.
Magic is there to be felt and turned into something that makes us feel at peace. The world may be in disarray, but we can always turn inward and listen to ourselves and look out for each other. Here in Australia where I am we’ve just come out of lockdown since March…but there seems to be a small resurgence of the virus in another state. We all need to be careful in these times and stay safe. There was lots learnt for me throughout this year living such a different life – and you know what, I don’t think I can go back to living my old life anymore. Hope you are doing okay over there , Sue. Hugs across the miles.
