Nature is what we see,
The Hill, the Afternoon, 
Squirrel, Eclipise, the Bumble-bee,
Nay – Nature is Heaven.

Nature is what we hear,
The Bobolink, the Sea, 
Thunder, the Cricket 
Nay, - Nature is Harmony.

Nature is what we know
But have no art to say.
So impotent our wisdom is
To Her simplicity.

A THING OF BEAUTY

A thing of beauty is a joy for ever:
Its loveliness increases; it will never
Pass into nothingness; but still will keep
A bower quiet for us, and a sleep
Full of sweet dreams, and health, and quiet breathing.
Therefore, on every morrow, are we wreathing
A flowery band to bind us to the earth,
Spite of despondence, of the inhuman dearth
Of noble natures, of the gloomy days,
Of all the unhealthy and o'er-darkened ways
Made for our searching:  yes, in spite of all,
Some shape of beauty moves away the pall
From our dark spirits.

~ JOHN KEATS (1795 - 1821) English romantic poet
