Nature Is Life
Halt the air,
live to die
Stay indoor,
live in self-prison
Refuse to make friends,
live on a lonely Island
Nature is life.
Inhale the gentle morning air,
live to life
Open your heart like the morning Rose,
live a satisfied life.
Rest like an eagle,
live a life of no fear
Nature is life.
Hear the chuckle cry of the insects,
The reverberating drums of the elephant grass
Survey the baritone cries of the owl
Nature is life.
If nature is not life,
then live with stress
If you want to kill boredom,
Stroll through the moonlight
If you want to clear a worried soul,
Take a walk through the seashore
If it doesn't give you a piece of mind,
Then nature is not life.

Dance In The Forest
The passion of the wave
Blowing without caution
The signs of her music
Only known to her inhabitants.
Dancing time is here
The trees shall dance
The grasses shall dance
The living and nonliving
All shall hear her melodies.
Gentle by gentle her drumming evokes
Wild by wild her dancing began
Day in and day out her sound spreads
In mysteries that are only known to the spirits.

Rain Raining
Rain raining
Oh, rain reign.
Rain raining
Oh, rain reign.
Rain reigning
Oh, rain!
Dropping in the shadow of your reign
Ember months crown your reign.
Rain raining
Oh, reign!
With decrees promulgated from our roots-top
“I have come to bless,
Yeh!, I have come to destroy”
But trust in me
That your seeds might mustard the earth.
Rain raining
Oh, reign!
For the throne of cold
You guide our hands to cuddle
That nine months would celebrate your reign.
Rain raining
Oh, reign!
For your foot showers with calm peace
That defeats the throne of harsh weather.
Rain raining
Oh, reign!
For your throne shall ever reign
Till the manifestation of that glorious morning.
Rain raining
Oh, rain reign!

Abuja
Abuja
Centre of our dream
Abuja
Thoughts that seal on the rocks
Abuja
Slopes of rocks towered to the sky
As smoke accelerate with messages
That shows your might.
Abuja
City for all
No one lay siege to you
Abuja
In batches, the flame of your glory arises
Round about her is enclosed by hilly mountains
Mountains that protect her towering reign.
Abuja
A city to live
Abuja
A crown to wear
Abuja
Our centre of excellence
Abuja
Our Abuja, our dreams
In fullness of hand fulfilled.

Heart Away
Roaming away in thoughts
Guessing away in wait
What a terrible situation this is.
Who can control the invisible?
Nor can dethrone the voice that the heart bears?
What’s a life where solutions aren’t abounce?
I saw my heart roaming in motion
My heart castigating in roaring thoughts
What is this that has befallen me?
To the throne of a foreign lands
It roams without any control
Here I am in thought but my heart away.

P-town Journey
Journey of a thousand miles
Begins with a step
Risk is a life that we must take to survive
The sun here rejoices in her glory
Speed along the road
That has been blessed in motion.
Smoothness,
Side-to-side green splashing of nature’s leaf
Smiling within the ray of sunshine
P-town journey
I am going in search of my future.
Yesterday the bell of hope rung
Announcing a call from a cell phone
Hurry to P-town for your future is waiting
Journey across Ibagwa Bridge
Deathtrap that is now a glory
Dividend of Democracy
I congratulate you.
Speed of life, trap of death
You hold the race that we must finish.
Across my journey,
Boundaries separating different Clans I see
Uyo to Ekom Iman Junction, Abak,
Ibagwa Barrack, Oruk Anam, Mkpat Enin,
Ikot Abasi…
A longer bridge,
The fourth that I have cross
Goodbye to Oruk Anam it says
Across the bank of the water with trees,
A boat paddling…
Rush shout of stop!
Arm robbers!
Stop driver stop
Reverse, driver reverse
O – no! a car was about to burn
We had to drive on.
Police collecting their usual
If the government doesn’t care, who cares?
Bionu, Bori, Nonwa…
The town I cross.
Bush on fire,
Ground prepared for crop yields.
P-town I am here!
Town! The refusal dump welcomed me.
The smell of the township,
A different from the smell of inter-land
Eleme with tankers all around…
The driver dropped me!
Shell-Gate I alight
P-town I have come!

Nature Poems Short: Best Short Nature Poems. Feel the essence of these short nature poems. This in short is the mind thought far beyond some comprehension.
Fear
He walks like a shadow
Always faster than his shadow
He lives in us
Always drawing us two steps backward
There he stands
With one mission to pull us downward.

Road To Nowhere
Bashing in the emporium of love
A journey to nowhere I made
The little that could have been my hands saving
How I wasted them in search of that which might never be.
Silly, I felt my soul cried
How could you pain your heart this much?
Wondering, in search of a treasure that despises you
As if without her
You will breathe none of another day.
How could you be this naïve?
When your eyes can see the signs
The very signs that read the hearts
“I don’t want you, wished you would understand”.

Stranger In Need
I came like a stranger in need
In need of help, that seems impossible.
I came from far
My belly is hungry
My mouth is tasty
My legs are weary.
I came for help that seems impossible
But with God, I know all things are possible
For He uses men to bless a man
And He will use you to bless me.

Short Nature Poems: Beautiful Nature Poems. Here are some unsung nature poems that you can share with friends and loved ones.
Yellow Sun
Hang in the sky
And shower you a blessing
Oh! Bless thou the earth
With your adorable smiles.
Up above the sky,
The yellow sun holds her peace
Like the clock, it tells the time.
Evening is here,
Soon, it shall roll into the night
Who knows what the day holds?
Nor can tell what the night brings?
I look into the sky and smile
For the day’s struggle
Has counted her blessing.
See the yellow sun,
Brighter than ever.

Ocean In Gray
Dark sea roaring in thy tempest fall
Oh! Sing the song of sorrow
For the blue sky has turned into a grey wind
And you have joined in her grey celebration.
Who will sail at thy roaring?
For the path of all mortals has opened her mouth
Waiting that it might sing the wild song of victory
For the soul that would tempt her gray-gathering.

Overlooking The River
From this route, they came
Women of vision… pride to behold…
Freedom fighter who mobilized to resist
That act of tax the colonial master bestowed
From here they came
The route of the river they follow
That history would bear them witness.
Stories of their conqueror
Are now told centuries thereafter
Women who fought the Ikot Abasi women riot
But see how history seeks to place them wrong
Didn’t they say it was the Aba women's riot?
But where was it fought?
Come to Ikot Abasi
Ask of the Independence Park
From there you would see the Obelist
For the victims of the Women’s war of 1929.

Nature Poems For Kids. For the kids, these nature poems for them are to teach a lesson that the future of the kids should be preserved and not to be abused.
Street Abuse
The innocence of her face
Wrapped in the basin of oranges she hawk
Buy orange, buy orange she shouted.
Days have gone by
Yet her basin of the container was full
Buy orange, buy orange she shouted.
The hot sun seems to bath her with sweat
As her clothes ooze with the fragrance of her body
Buy orange, buy orange she shouted.
She walks across many streets
A further journey to the major road she also made
Buy orange, buy orange she shouted.
Her voice has become weaker
A pity cry from her constant announcement
Buy orange, buy orange she continued.
The night was at hand
Yet her basin of sweet oranges was full
Who will buy my oranges? Her heart cried?
Orange!
A deep voice came from around a building
There, her heart was relieved in smiles.
By the end,
She was carrying an empty basin
With smiles mixed with regret.
How her innocence has been bought
In exchange for her sweet oranges
With a little token to cover her shame.

Abused Children
Slaves in the hand of their Dr-Do-Good
They have made them the masters
Slaves in the hand of their Dr-Do-Good
Their bodies have been decorated with ranks.
Who has done this to them?
Wicked pretenders
Mortals who lack conscience
Same who have taken advantage of their helplessness.
Slaves in the palm of their heavy hands
Their faces, they have been made to see the stars
Slaves in the palm of their heavy hand
Their bodies, they decorated with their fingers.
Who has done this to them?
Wicked pretenders,
Mortals who lack conscience
Same who had taken advantage of their innocence.
Slaves in the foot of their legs
Their bodies, they turned into a football field
Slaves in the foot of their legs
Their bodies, they matched like the mixed gravels.
Who has done this to them?
Those wicked pretenders
Mortals who lack human sympathy
The same who takes advantage of their disadvantaged background.

Cries From Orphanage
Fate! Why has thy placed a cruel blow on us?
Oh! What a wick world we live
We were to be the hope of many homes
Yet we have been labelled a curse by some.
Who are they that have done us this evil?
Our soul shall ever be in silent tears
For mother-luck has rejected us
Now, we are outcasts even in our own land.
From the refuse dump, at the bush path,
At the corner of a roundabout, we are forsaken,
Abandoned by fate to die
Yet, rescued by the hands of good Samaritans
Who only sheltered us at the orphanage.
We shall ever weep
For tears shall ever be our daily food
Oh! Our soul shall ever be in silent sorrow
For fate has placed us a cruel blow
That only the wing of destiny could revive.

Buyers Buy
In the eye of the dark nights
They hawks
Buy bread… buy pure-water…
Buy drink… buy chin-chin…
Buy orange… buy plantain…
Buy Gala… buy…
Buy one that I would be free to go home
Buy all that I would eat my night food
Buy! Buy!! Buy!!! that my madam would smile.

Askance
I asked so I would know,
I sought so I could find
I talked so I would learn.
Ask, for it is said it shall be given,
Seek, for it is said you shall find
Knock, for it is said it shall be open.
I asked hoping I would get an answer,
I hope I will find
I knocked, hoping it would be open.

Motherless Baby Home
Let tears drop not,
Let no skin feel any pain,
But let us look at the pains we emanate.
Why do we make what we can’t keep?
O! Where is the heart that is loved?
For nine months we bear the pains
Only to be abandoned like a waste bin.
What shall we tell our Maker?
That His free gift to us
Have found love in a strange four-wall
Were a thought of reality are the hearts
That might never find forgiveness.
But I smile for a home has erased tears
Comfort has found a new song.
We shall sing for freedom,
We shall dance for joy,
For the stone which the builders rejected,
Shall one day sit among tables,
That the King's bouquet host.

Mothers Strength
Salty smokes from the eyes of a caring mother
Heated by a flame of ashes that sprung from her firewood
Yet she must obey the timing of nature
That the stomach of her family would suffer no hunger.
With a hymn of songs in our month, she hums
As a clap of hands re-echoes inside her cooking pot
Gathered in are the kings with their combined aroma
As she poured the condiments that arose in the air.
In a while, her palatable meal would be ready
That a plate served would be a call for another
Hunger shall be banished in the stomach of her children
A smile would be the strength of her household.
African women my pride, womanhood our strength
Complaining has never been their ego
For they are trained by maidens,
To nurture the belly of their land.

Famous Nature Poems. Feel the essence of these nature poems which is a personal collection of poems written as the inspiration came. Love Poems from the Heart for Her and True Love Poems from the Heart for Her
Then…
I looked into the dark moon
Mixed in the colour of tears
I looked into the hot sun
Mixed in the colour of the roaring wind.
I looked into the heart
Mixed in the colour of deception.
Who knows the routine of the moon?
Who can trace the origin of the sun?
Nor knows the hidden thoughts of the heart?
I looked to the moon,
I perceived the burning heat of the sun
Yet, I can’t tell the secret voice of the heart.
Then I looked up,
Shake my head and walk away.

Brewers Content
A sleepy town
Down South-West
Has become a treasure island
That houses the brewer.
Nineteen-Seventy-nine
Her journey began
In a little town named Imagbon
Brewing the 33’ and Hi-Malt contents.
Now in the South-East
They had spread their tentacles
In Awomma-ma her abode is crowned
For a continued brewing of her contents.
Here is your abode, I did my service year
Imagbon, a land in Ijebu-Ode
Many stories of you I have to tell
Stories that sometimes make me glad.
Ijebu-Ode, the land of mighty warriors,
Heard you are stingy in nature
But to me prudent is your watchword
You are truly a nature in itself.
I came, I saw, I conquered
Now I can tell your story
Maybe that should be kept in mind
But of all, you showed me another side of life.

Poem About Nature Beauty. You may find some mixed feelings when writing these nature poems. Nature can be in any form. Whatever interpretation your heart feels about it, then you are right with it.
Abuja!
Abuja at Night, 11:30 in Abuja
The gentle breeze splashed
On the marble of streetlights
Long into the night
The beauty of light
Sprinkle her reign.
Abuja!
How beautiful you are at night
The people here have gone to sleep
But fun seekers are out to have a swell time
As law enforcement are doing their job
For the night they protect away from evil.
Beautiful Abuja,
Centre of our collective unity
Sleep well and wake up more beautiful
We came to say hello and here at night
I joined others to find my way back to Port Harcourt.

Ibom Connection
Hot afternoon,
The sky rejoices in its brightness
To celebrate your reign.
Calm evening,
The sparkle of lightening gathered
In praise of your beauty.
Every passing day,
Roll of cars, troupes of Okadamen,
Beehive of feet…
All add praises to your towering might.
In evergreen pastures,
Species of nature cloths your nakedness
In a combined beauty of flower attires.
Roundabout your enclave,
An ounce of nature’s water claps
To chant your victory
As the centre of connection.
Rejoice former Uyo Circuit
For the coming of Ibom Plaza
Has rechristened you – Ibom Connection.
Rejoice! Oh rejoice,
Centre heart of Akwa Abasi Ibom State
For you shall ever stand
As a symbol of unity in our land of promise.

Sleep
Sleep!
Elope my eyes
Take away your compulsory lessons
For in you, we learn the process of journeying beyond.
Sleep!
Elope me eyes
So I could burn the midnight oil
That the morning would sing my victory song.
Sleep o! Sleep!
Get thee behind me
For the mind that seeks
To drink from the cup of poverty
You guide their steps to wallow in self-pity.

5 Minute Pleasure
Soak in the passion of sweats
With the body gyrating
To every tendered touch.
The soul is alive
Jazzing to every beat
That the heart mourns.
Breath has been taken away
Consumed in the pleasure
Of illicit lust.
Yearning…
How the heart
Begs for more.
Take me,
Oh! Take me as I am
It begs, it cries, it pleads.
See how crying has become a song of comfort
In a minute they would rock the boat together
Only to relish another passionate round
That would blow the mind to the pinnacle of cloud nine.

Strike in our body polity
Strike in our homes
Strike, strike, strike everywhere.

Our schools now produce haft bakes
Our nation now loses trillions
Hunger has perfected her mission
Now, looters have found their home.
Strike, strike, strike
When shall we be tired?
