we call it poetry

poetry speaks its name

in heavenly shades and

tones~ it owns flowers

 butterflies and moon beams.

     bringing sweet dreams

      of daylight design 

in gardens filled with sunshine 

expanding excitement to inhale 

moments of beauty 

to intoxicate our senses

like champagne on ice

         as a cool breeze 

zigzags through the trees

seeing leaves dance 

entranced entertainment

for eyes to drink in

     

           and so much more

as nature's door opens up

to us in pastel and vibrant 

hues. birds, sky and the sea

 sounds that lure us to

write down each nuance

 because poets have to

Isn't it true that we poets love to connect everything in such a beautiful artistic manner as if we see the nature in its heavenly form. This piece is amazing Fran. I really dig it.
Nicely penned, beautiful creation.
