Equivocalness Behind Nature
This poem anthology is a collection
of poems pertaining to the theme of nature. I have always found the idea of how
life on earth goes about very fascinating, much like I love the science behind
psychology and how it affects the world. Nature is something that will always
occur on Earth as long as the Earth keeps on thriving; it will always keep
changing and growing, much like life. Nature is constant. While some people may
have the vague, preconceived notion that nature only relates to the plants,
animals, and all life on our planet Earth, there are also other factors that go
into the idea of nature.
Plants,
animals, and all organisms can be characterized as a part of nature, yet social
interactions, emotions, and the changes we go through throughout our lives can
also be a part of the natural world. I find it so interesting how much so many
factors in our lives happen so naturally, often like the power of lust, love,
and our emotions. Whilst lust is a natural occurrence that is preordained into
humans and animals in order to reproduce and keep the life cycle going on our
Earth, love is an idea that goes along with reproduction but in different ways.
Love also helps the life cycle continue on because it allows animals to care
for one another, a source of protection to prevent mass extinction. Mother’s and
father’s care for their children, women care for men, men care for women,
families care for one another, and ecosystems stay together to thrive together
in their very own environment. With no love or emotions, animals would not feel
the need to care for their offspring. This is why it is in our nature, it is a innate
instinct. If love or lust were not a natural occurrence for animals in our existence
on Earth, our survival would not have made it this far and we would not have left
even the tiny foot print that we are leaving today, revealing our existence.
I
think so many different authors write about the abstract theme of nature
because it is something that we can all relate to. Nature influences our lives
greatly whether we notice it or not, but through writing we are able to share
the same experiences whether we write and read about death, our emotions, or
the beautiful scenery and other organisms around us. These poems were wonderful
to read because I could relate to all of them in at least one aspect. This is
why nature poetry is so awesome, we share this wonderful interconnectivity
through the natural occurrences bound into us, without our choice, and we can
express them through writing.
When
finding my poems, I was looking for writing that could all be juxtaposed
together to represent the different ways nature is pushed into our lives. Some
poems relate to growing up, viewing the beautiful surrounding nature, love that
has impacted one’s life, untamed emotions or thoughts, and even death. Yet not
all these topics might have been viewed similarly on the first hand, with a
little thought they all share a similar perspective on life in general. I
noticed in all the poems that I found that they all had a common focus on
togetherness. The poems I choose did not have a story to tell about their very
own experience with themselves and themselves only; they all had another being or natural occurrence
that impacted the poem’s direction. I hope you can take as much out of these poems as I did. They all are within the boundaries of the
natural things we all experience.
