Description:

Our senses revel in the incomparable majesty of the work of Mother Nature. The structure of the landscape, the multi-coloured mantle of trees and fauna, the myriad animals that wander and inhabit this glorious Earth. Nature conducts symphonies of sound as her world goes from day into the inky embrace of night. Our ears and eyes are constantly bathed in the wonder of her ways; the soft drizzle of rain from soft grey clouds, a wave caressing the shore and the ravenous colours of a departing sunset. Her invisible heartbeat is everywhere and for everyone. Indeed, whenever we look and listen to the vastness of Nature’s beauty she can placate our anger and soothe our pain, despite our knowledge of her destructive forces that create myriad tragedies. Still her vistas can energise us, feed our hearts and souls and prompt us to muse on the mysteries of life and death. 1 - Fifty Shades of Nature - An Introduction 2 - from Song Of Myself by Walt Whitman 3 - Nature's Hymn to the Deity by John Clare 4 - On a Lane in Spring by John Clare 5 - Lines Written in Early Spring by William Wordsworth 6 - An April Day by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 7 - An April Afternoon by Alexander Anderson 8 - A Rainy Day in April by Francis Ledwidge 9 - In May by William Henry Davies 10 - The Darkling Thrush By Thomas Hardy 11 - The Thrush's Nest by John Clare 12 - To a Skylark by Percy Bysshe Shelley 13 - Ode to a Nightingale by John Keats 14 - Sonnet LVII - Summit of Skiddaw, July 7th 1838 by Henry Alford 15 - Nature, The Gentlest Mother by Emily Dickinson 16 - A July Afternoon by the Pond by Walt Whitman 17 - An August Evening, 1865 by Carolyn Clive 18 - The Summer Rain by Henry David Thoreau 19 - August Moonrise by Sara Teasdale 20 - In Autumn Moonlight by Robert Seymour Bridges 21 - Daylight and Moonlight by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow 22 - At the Sunrise, 1848 by Dante Gabriel Rossetti 23 - After Sunset by William Allingham 24 - Across the Red Sky by Katherine Mansfield 25 - In the Fields by Charlotte Mew 26 - Evening by Paul Laurence Dunbar 27 - I Have Heard the Sunset Song of the Birches by Stephen Crane 28 - Trees by Joyce Kilmer 29 - Binsey Poplars by Gerard Manley Hopkins 30 - Daffodils by William Wordsworth 31 - Pied Beauty by Gerard Manley Hopkins 32 - Nature's Lady by George Eliot 33 - Seashore by Tagore 34 - The Dark Blue Sea by Byron 35 - By the Sea by Christina Georgina Rossetti 36 - The Little Waves of Breffney by Eva Gore-Booth 37 - The Awakening River by Katherine Mansfield 38 - The Lake Isle of Innisfree by W B Yeats 39 - The Cloud on the Mountain by Alama Iqbal 40 - Sonnet 33 - Full Many a Glorious Morning Have I Seen by William Shakespeare 41 - Tell Me Not Here, It Needs Not Saying by A E Housman 42 - The Autumn by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 43 - Ode Written on the First of December by Robert Southey 44 - Winters Naked Wood by Daniel Sheehan 45 - Frost At Midnight by Samuel Taylor Coleridge 46 - The Snow Storm by Ralph Waldo Emerson 47 - from The Happy Farmer by Iolo Morganwg 48 - The Calf by Thomas Hardy 49 - To A Mouse by Robert Burns 50 - Snake by D H Lawrence 51 - The Tyger by William Blake Author - John Clare.
