a distant flute hums sweet folk songs
where gentle valley parts the hills
while youthful wind cavorts in joy
with tall curved bodies dressed in green

rays of sunlight steal warm glances
eyeing shadows of newborn leaves
at young butterflies gliding free
through the amply flowing spring air

an artist sits in admiration
wondering how could it be that
while nature seems so full of youth
we feel much older than our age!
perhaps, he muses, we don’t take
the time to learn from our mother

Very beautiful work. A calming sense of culture and nature interwoven with a little wisdom at the end. Enjoyed.

(smiles) Oh Sudhir, this is beautiful, sweet friend, yet so very true, I think we take our loved ones for granted sometimes and until later do we realize our mothers and fathers used to see all we see now! (big hugggsssssss) God Bless You, sweet friend, this is precious, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sudhir, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

I'm keeping this one, in admiration of your talent, appreciating the keen eye you keep on both nature and man.
