I am an ocean - swilling calmly; wrecking ships and shore.

I am a hurricane - outer parts and eye and more.

I am an avalanche - speak softly to me I'll be still;

but bellow loudly, stomp about on me I'll spill.

 

I am the weather - sunny, clear but fit to burst

when a thousand droplets are absorbed in thirst;

I filter out all dross downland, upland and over hills

this brooding cloud ignites, renews, distils.

 

I, just like nature, am pretty, calm and tame

but wild, powerful and ruthless just the same

and now I know there's beauty in this fact;

truth, wholeness and balance all intact.
