"Beauty of Trees"
By Chief Dan George
"The beauty of the trees,
the softness of the air,
the fragrance of the grass,
speaks to me.
The summit of the mountain,
the thunder of the sky,
The rhythm of the sea,
speaks to me.
The faintness of the stars,
the freshness of the morning,
the dewdrop on the flower,
speaks to me.
The strength of the fire,
the taste of salmon,
the trail of the sun,
and the life that never goes away,
they speak to me
And my heart soars."
Diary:
This poem makes me feel at peace. It talks about every aspect of nature and how it makes the narrator feel. He is able to find himself; this poem is soothing and the message is easily conveyed through his description.
