Nature

The beauty I see
is so new to me
Having never realized
the delicate wonder
of a spring breeze
as it hisses quietly
through the tall grass
Turning the green earth
into an undulating
ocean swell
The majesty of such
overwhelms me
Opening my eyes
to the incredible artistry
of nature's hand

Thank you for your kind words everyone. I love how nature gives us beauty that words fail to adequately describe...but it doesn't stop me from trying.

This is fabulous, you just brought a beautiful scene to my mind with your wind swept painting of words. Thanks for brightening my day with sunshine written.

This is so beautifully written, so vivid you can put yourself right there in the middle of it.
