We all human beings, feel better in the company of nature. Is not it? Whenever we sleep in the lap of nature, we become nearer to beauty. Everyone knows the earth is blessed with the beauty of nature. Nature comes in many true colors. One cannot describe nature in words.
We experience the best of nature in the silence of a deep forest, in the calmness of an attractive valley, in the hot sand of a cool beach, in the greenery of a big mountain, in the salty water of a sea, in the smoothness of a plateau, on the face of an innocent animal, in the reflection of a charming river and many other places.

We come across many things each day that remind us nature is watching us. Like, you feel the cool breeze that makes you realize that you are alive, you feel the colorful flowers that attract you with their odor, you feel the rays of shining sun in winter penetrating your body, you feel the delicate wings of a butterfly that touch you, you feel the cool darkness during the sunset, you see the twinkling of the stars on the black sheet in the night, you feel the cool drops of rain, you feel the variation in the season, you enjoy the taste of fresh fruits These are all-natural events. So, in simple, we have a deep connection with nature. So, it is our need to be in the company of nature.
Nature adorned our earth with its remarkable resources and planned a good decoration with full zest, now it is our duty to maintain them all. That was all from my side for the mother nature that a little bird told me. I have made a table containing meaningful words related to nature and its process. It is your turn to use those words and explain the beauty of nature or your exposure to its events. You may use these and come up with a new idea of sketching nature’s beauty.
