Why I Go Natural
By
Francis William Bessler
Note:
I wrote the song below to complete my previous essay - FALSE STANDARDS - DIRE CONSEQUENCES. I am offering that song as a stand alone below because I think it deserves stand alone attention. I may feature it again soon, however, to complete my next planned essay - NATURE IS THE SOLUTION - NOT THE PROBLEM. Perhaps by the end of next month, I can do that. I'll plan on it.
For now, though, here again is a poetic summary of my Love For Nature - and how I personally deal with the wonder of being "a child of Nature - and God".
Thanks! FWB
Why I Go Natural

I’m asked why I go natural.
I say it’s to be a grateful one.
I don’t see how I can say Thanks
by denying what I’m from.
And what I’m from is Nature;
and Nature is Divine.
So I’m so glad to go through life
as a son of Thine.
I’m asked why I go natural.
I say it’s to do what is right.
It is not right to accuse life of wrong
as if we have better sight.
I like that I am part of the All
and the All is All Good.
So, let me prance naturally
to find true brotherhood.
I’m asked why I go natural.
I say it’s to find Heaven here.
Heaven is only knowing God’s all about.
So, that makes Heaven everywhere.
God is really not a person -
rather a Presence in everything.
So, no matter where I go,
Heaven’s bells will ring.
I’m asked why I go natural.
I say it is to find I am at home.
When I know that all are the same,
I know that I cannot be alone.
You see, we are all God’s children,
whatever it is that God is.
And because we’re all of God,
none of us can be of sin.
I’m asked why I go natural.
I say, why not join me?
Look at yourself as a miracle
like the middle of Divinity.
We are all equally worthy
and each of us belongs.
No matter where we might go,
that should be our song.
Yes, no matter where we might go,
Until next time, Adieu!
Your Bella Vita host,
Will Bessler
