A flock of cattle
in the green pastures graze
White herons
surround them as always

Often we watch, one's curse, into another's boon turned In Nature's grand design, how strange things are aligned! ....so touching and true. A beautiful poem is amazingly shared. Thanks for sharing.
Her unique ways! ! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
The beauty and harshness of nature. A lovely write Valsa.
This is a very lovely write, Valsa. I like the wisdom expressed and so true, the grand design is amazing and at the same time difficult to understand. It looks very much like everything in this world is happening for a purpose, but with our limited human mind, we may not be able to understand the why of it all. Thought provoking and excellent poem.
Amazing you put it in words while we all ignore it for Poetry! ! Thank you Poet! ! 10+++! !
A very insightful work. Shows ur keen observation of surroundings. Descriptive write with a philosophical touch about it. Very good to read. Yes, sometimes Nature's laws are hard to decipher. A super 10.
Yes, Nature has its wonderful designs for balancing things , Flora and fauna, fire and ice that balance each other.It is because of this that life survives on earth. Man is trying hard to unravel the mysteries of nature.A lovely poem.
Yes Poet it is all in Nature's Grand Design.. ! Not in our Civilization we made of Bullets and all! Almighty gave us all to live Natural! ! Ty! !
There is such a tremendous web of co-dependency out there in the world of nature. We need to know more about these before we cut down woods, turn swamp into farmland, destroy a species of insects, etc. Our Southern states, for example, are now learning that removing natural vegetation from the shorelines of the Gulf of Mexico led to massive flooding from hurricanes that hadn't been a problem while Mother Nature had been in charge. Mankind had best start listening to the experts- -number 1 expert being Mother Nature. Great stimulating write here, Valsa! ! ! !
Nature's way keeps the balance. Overgrown flora in the wild need fauna to trim. And when animals grow without control predators come into picture. Lines in your poem capture the essence of nature. Beautiful write.
First of all, so many thanks for your sincere prayers. Since 2008, after the heart attack, I am under treatment. In 2013 I resigned from the job. and in your words Often we watch, one's curse, into another's boon turned In Nature's grand design, how strange things are aligned! Having nothing else to do I started writing English poems in 2014. Though I had written a few poems earlier, too but I had been regularly writing Urdu poems since my boyhood, but then I paid full attention to English poetry. I am thankful to English poetry as it changed a religious man, a little extremist, into a loving liberal man. Friends like you helped me a lot to learn how to write an English poem. Though I am still learning but I think I am better now than what I was, both as man and as a poet. My muscles are weak and I cannot undergo in any type of operation, so I am living on medication. The positive thing is this that according to my doctor I am a stable patient. When I asked what does he mean by a stable patient, he told me I have only one disease and that is genetic, no sugar, no high blood pressure or anything like that. Thanks again I have taken much of your valuable time.
Thus our initiation into poetry is almost similar...! Both of us are accidental poets. I too didn't write anything till 2007. You started writing English poetry only in 2014. In a short span of time you have become a vibrant presence on poem hunter and have penned so many beautiful poems. In a way, your early retirement on account of ill health has been turned into a blessing. Now forget the fact that you are a patient. Let your lively spirit and youthfulness overcome all physical infirmities! Let a lot of positive energy flow from you and heal you perfectly! Our prayers and Best Wishes!
A fabulous poem. Top score.
