Nature makes no mistakes, ever,
for judgement is only the realm of humans.
Animals never go down the wrong path,
for all paths lead somewhere.
Fish never get lost as they swim the waters
as part of the great chain of life.
Trees know their way as they reach for the sun
with their roots seeking water.
The smallest speck and the largest galaxy
unerringly dance in evolving unstable perfection.
Make no mistake about it.
Only humans define good and bad, left and right,
benefit and detriment.
Evil and righteousness are equally meaningless.
Nature moves always, all ways in perfect equity
while we decide to define justice, love and right,
or prejudice, hate and wrong.
In this way we place ourselves outside nature.
This is our biggest mistake.
