Nature's Symphony
I love Nature's inimitable voice and the accompanying and sights which go to the very depths of the heart to give pleasant serenity.
.
Is it the soft rustling of branches and leaves caused by the rousing wind or the crack of thunder that follows the zigzag of lightening's strike across the skyline.
.
Perhaps its the gurgling flow of a stream steadily trickling, heading to meet with the gushing waters of the ravine whose deafening force blasts unceasingly.
.
Another might be the mixtape of sounds of living things inhabiting any particular ecosystem to give it its uniqueness. From Asia's forests to the Congo basin on to the Great Amazon - though all dwarfed by the Taiga biome stretching from Russia to North America.
You will hear sounds such as croaking of frogs, gyration of crickets and other insects, cooing and cries of different birds, growling of cats mighty and small, hissing snakes and other slitherers, thuds of the hoofed ones and not to forget the laughter and chatter of monkeys amongst many others.
.
Then think for a moment, of the Sahara, the Kalahari and the two Poles whose stark barrenness' signature is either the whistle of wind rushing unhampered, roaming lonely, free; or a silence that makes you hear your blood pumping - as if it were drums of war - while the scorching or numbing - as the case may be - continues to sing and sting unrelentingly like an angered buzzing hive of bees!
.
Forget not 70 percent of Earth's surface - the oceans - are engaged in their own private parties which we are all mostly oblivious of based on the fact that humans have only been able to access 5 percent!
.
Thus crescendos of foaming waves, tides, hurricanes, cyclones, typhoons and tsunamis build to a pitch to occasionally give us a taste of what is taking place down under. Indeed the seas - which sometimes deceivingly seem calm and inviting - are overwhelming for a sighting is something that I can only describe as breathtaking! A world apart indeed!
.
So in the end after this exploration, tell me if I am at fault for being a diehard fan of Nature's Symphony...
