Analysis of Dr. Nature at Your Service



Dr. Nature at Your Service ©
Gary Shulman, MS. Ed.
July 10, 2023

Every single inch of nature galore
Leaves me yearning and hoping for more
To heal the ails that often do haunt me
While calming the pain that serves to taunt me
Rainbow hued floral delights
Bless my eyes with regal sights
For flora and fauna embrace each cell
They replenish the vanishing optimism well
Renewed I am when Robins appear
While my brain is mesmerized by a grazing deer
Every shape, smell and color serve to gently heal
My psyche spins with joy-can all this truly be real?
So drink your fill of nature’s magic
So life won’t at times seem so hopelessly tragic
Invest some energy to escape and rejoice
Your protoplasm will thank you for that very wise choice!
