Soft tones, like beat of pulse, echo clear With care of touch to stretched hide of deer Melody of flute so fluid you can almost see Sounds mingling up to dance in shimmer of aspen tree Chuckle of creek, clear and cold Glistening in sunset with sheen of gold Fires are laid, waiting for dusk to fall When sparks will dance with music’s call Full moon rising over mountain top V of swan crossing in silent backdrop Shimmering in white to blind the eye As stars do wait to diamond the sky Last night they had been told in shimmer of coal To seek the beauties which made up the soul To open their eyes to all that was around Giving some tones to mingle with sound Til all was in harmony with gift of life To sway in peace instead of strife Embracing the gifts which are given so free For the treasures of earth are what they see All, which happens, is according to plan Take forth the lessons that come from the land Seek the beauty with patience for the rest For what is life, if not nature’s test No more that night, did words he say But their thoughts were deep all through next day Til now there was first sound to bring the night With flute and drum to start new sight |

"As stars do wait to diamond sky.." that was beautiful..the whole thing was beautiful, that just really stood out for me. Just keep experimenting..I am sure you can come up with some unique stuff. |

Chuckle of creek, clear and cold Glistening in sunset with sheen of gold Fires are laid, waiting for dusk to fall When sparks will dance with music’s call Logan, this is so beautiful. It really touchedme. Thank you for sharing this with us. Hugs Ethel |

Last night they had been told in shimmer of coal To seek the beauties which made up the soul To open their eyes to all that was around Giving some tones to mingle with sound ~*~ How complete the circle, when all are drawn to live in harmony. Thank you for such a beautiful read by which to start my day. |
