Patience

How mountains up high 
hold their patience,
with honor and grace;
- how a bird passes by,
seemingly undisturbing the peace;
this scenery I see is of trees standing mindfully;
even the birds on the trees do not distract
them to continue to be a part of nature
not just as décor but as an equal part 
of the whole.
People can learn much from the workings of nature,
for as to look is to see and to learn is to know;
to want to be patient is wanting to feel and walk 
in the same pace as nature does.
