“Nature knows not
Her beauty without us.
We know not
Our beauty, compassion,
And peace without her.”
Oh beautiful tree
The lessons thy impart to me
Open the heart to be free
Grateful to you
I will forever be.” Camilla Downs – Author, Lessons from Nature

“The delicate balance
Of life and death.
Without life
There is no death
Without death
There is no life
Death is life and
Life is death.” ~Camilla Downs – Author, Lessons of Nature
“To go with the flow,
To be at ease,

“You are perfect.
Every shadow.
Every line.
Every bump.
Every curve.
You are perfectly divine.
My eyes could study you for an eternity
and still not grasp the depth of your beauty.
My heart need not study you at all.
For the heart knows the depths of your beauty.
Our beauty is one and the same.
We are perfect.” ~Camilla Downs 2016

all with different views. Yet, you are eternally at peace.
Oh tree. You inspire me.” ~Camilla Downs – Author

When my thoughts have settled on sadness,
