Nature is a Temple

Charles Baudelaire's “Correspondences” in An Anthology of French Poetry from de Nerval to Valery, trans. Angel Flores.
 
Nature is a temple from whose living columns
commingling voices emerge at times;
Here man wanders through forests of symbols
Which seem to observe him with familiar eyes. (21)

  1. I love that ... nature really is a temple.
    I think I need to go be in the forrest.
