Original Nature Love Poems
Nature love poems: perhaps the purest celebration of romance – love – is expressing it, or embracing it, while surrounded by natural creation. Mountains, old trees, birds & bees…they all speak volumes about some invisible force holding all of us – people! – together. It might be curiosity, wonder, awe. It might be love.
These poems are all original nature love poems written beneath pine canopies, sitting on boats watching the sunset, picking colorful wildflowers, and exploring my favorite parks.

1.
If you’re looking for love
go to the mountains
even if you meet no one there
you’ll come back
deeply
naturally
mystically
in love
2.
What if there are other forests
on other planets
with other you’s and other me’s
sleeping under other stars
and smiling at other buzzing bees?
3.
Her eyes were stars,
her hands, nighttime flowers,
and her toes
well those
were just toes
but they were perfect.
4.
Wind doesn’t care
who you are
or what you look like
it just rustles your hair
and kisses your cheek
5.
Massive massive
stone and tree
small small
you and me
and we always sit
in wonderous staring
underneath
stone and tree
6.
Are the stars
jealous
of our love?
she asked.
7.
She put a flower in her hair
and around she spun
under the great, hot sun
and I couldn’t imagine
even a painting of much value
better done
8.
I tried to pick you flowers
but there were far too many
so I brought you here
to see them alive
and pretty as you
9.
A bird never sings alone
and so I can’t let you go
into the mountains on your own
my dear
10.
She painted little trees
on her little canvas
with a little smile
and I thought
very little
about the rain outside
11.
The wild wrapped me
in briars and cold wind,
in sore feet
and a runny nose
and I laughed
and held her tight.
12.
The sun is a star
she said
I’m daydreaming.
Which of this short collection is your favorite?
Let me know in the comments!
My favorites are poems #1, #2, and #3. If you’re looking for love… seems to be the simplest reason to spend time outdoors. Even if no one is with you, you have the chance to reconnect to yourself and the natural world, falling deeper in love with these which are often neglected by modern, busy, eager-to-please people.
What if there are other forests…? was one of the first love poems I wrote. I’m a curious, imaginative guy, and this poem imagines a limitless world–one so vast that the repetition of unique, young, excited love is perfectly reasonable.
Finally, Her eyes were stars… compares the lover to some of the finest natural beauties: stars and flowers. It ends, however, by simply stating that even without these lovely symbols for comparison, even just as she is, she is perfect. It’s an acknowledgment that beauty usurps beauty, and the throne is never perched high enough to be reclaimed.
Thanks for reading!
