Libby's Poem Nothings Natural Perfect

Nothings Natural Perfect

by Libby Peter

It’s funny how much

People listen to the media, magazines T.V

When nothing is just automatically perfect

I mean we can’t even really define perfect

But we all think that what we have to be  

I mean every living thing isn’t perfect

If you think about trees rocks animals

 They all have scars mentally physically or both

Just like people

Everybody’s been through something

Or other in their life

Just like nature

I mean think about when there a

Wildfire thunderstorm tornado hurricane strong wind rain

A mark gets left

A tree there a reason there’s a thing called leaf scars

When they loss a branch in a storm it doesn’t grow back that quickly

Some don’t grow back

 Rain erodes rocks snow does too

Those leaves crakes and can chipped off pieces of rock

And they can`t just get back what they lost

It leaves a mark like a scar

Animals they bear the scars they get when they get into a fight with another animal

Or collisions with humans or when they get out of a  turmeric experience

They will always have those scars

So humans and nature really aren’t that different

Humans and nature could work together

So I dare you try to name one thing

That is perfect without photo shop or makeup

Can you think of anything?

I can’t
