When Snow melts in the Mountains

When Snow melts in the Mountains

A Poem by Patricia Wedel
"

Freshwater streams feed into Rivers...

"
Love flows like streams down a Mountain Ravine... 
entwining among wildflowers of Lady Slippers and 
Jack in the Pulpits.... where Mountain Laurel gathers... 
Mourning Doves woo their lover under the cover of 
the Crescent Moon... returning to the western sky 
after sunset appearing with Evening Star Venus... 
Venus is named after the Roman Goddess of love and beauty...

"Just let your love flow like a mountain stream
And let your love grow with the smallest of dreams
And let your love show and you'll know what I mean
It's the season
Let your love fly like a bird on a wing
And let your love bind you to all living things
And let your love shine and you'll know what I mean
That's the reason" Bellamy Brothers


This was very beautiful and visual. We had a field of lady slipper orchids behind the house where I was raised. They grew under the cover of filtered light in an overgrown orchard. I love the mountain laurels, especially when they bloom in June and July. This painted a beautiful picture in my mind. I enjoyed, F.

Wow! You are welcome. Peace, love and harmony.
A wonderful poem as always
Sometimes things go somewhat less pleasantly as currently we are involved in a record breaking heat wave and that melting snow has become a raging torrent
