The Nature of Things is simply that. A compilation of observations and encounters in the wild applied to my form of poetry. I don't go by rules when I write, I try to go by my heart. Which brings the ire of the educated laureates. But with that said this offering is about when I am in nature and how it makes me feel. Those same feelings I hope to ignite in you as you read and drift in the honeysuckle scent, cringe at the crack of a lightning bolt, feel the hair raise on the back of your neck at the whale of a bobcat in the distance or simply just lying back, baking in the healing warmth of the sun, in a field of Yarrow alongside a babbling stream. Enjoy, it's the nature of things to do so. There is adventure right outside your door. Just go!
