Question

Write a poem on the beauty of nature with rhyme and imagery

Answer 1

From A Railway Carriage

Faster than fairies, faster than witches,

Bridges and houses, hedges and ditches;

And charging along like troops in a battle,

All through the meadows the horses and cattle:

All of the sights of the hill and the plain

Fly as thick as driving rain;

And ever again, in the wink of an eye,

Painted stations whistle by.

Here is a child who clambers and scrambles,

All by himself and gathering brambles;

Here is a tramp who stands and gazes;

And there is the green for stringing the daisies!

Here is a cart run away in the road

Lumping along with man and load;

And here is a mill and there is a river:

Each a glimpse and gone for ever!

Robert Louis Stevenson

Answer 2

I lay in the soft green grass, watching the wind shake the delicate petals around me.
For every brief moment i think I want to stay here forever and never flee.
I’m taken back by the quiet trickles of water i here flowing in the stream.
I watch a brittle leaf fall into the damp bliss letting the stream take it on its course
At this moment I feel no remorse,
Because maybe the key to life is embracing what comes your way even if it’s at full force.
