Where would we be without nature?  It nurtures us, it restores us, it even heals us. Life would be pretty sad indeed without the awe and wonder of the natural world, the feelings of sun on our skin and rain on our faces and cool breezes lifting our hair, the salt tang of the sea and the bright clean air of the mountains. Many songwriters have been moved to write songs about the wonders of nature. The Seventies also saw the beginnings of serious concerns about the negative impact humans have on the natural world, concerns shared by many songwriters. But more than this, nature is of course a wonderful metaphor;  the joy of the sun, the sorrow of a cloudy day.
