Bushes outside the window,
Raindrops on the leaves, beaded like silver pearls.
How I wish I could freeze this moment
and save it on my wall.

Tiny white flowers, decked with mini-drops,
waiting for the bees to come out.
Beauty that we could never create leaves me with a
painful longing to be able to recreate it

Maybe words can never totally recreate any human experience but you have come close with this poem.

Beautiful reminder that we all must stop and smell the roses, so to speak. lol
And that beauty and beautiful moments should be savored and appreciated.

your words are important and delicious, for sure we can't recreate beauty of the nature and we have to respect the earth, we are her guest for life...Thanks for the beautiful poem.

You have painted a vivid word picture here dear Lady, a joy to read. God bless.

How well the image is re-created in your words.

A poet must leave traces of his passing not proof.

You have the eye of an artist and the soul of a poet, a very unusual combination. Great work.
