Nature Discovers Itself

It was as ifAn eloquent flowerHad become conscious,And went raving about its own beauty.

It was as though the brookSuddenly babbled wordsMoreover, mountains thundered

Their announcement of the dayGrown aware of itself;

Through the empty poet,Bereft of man’s grasping,

Hailing the newly awakened day!
