The afternoon sun drifts lazily southwest
Sparkling off leaves as it reaches the crest

Of the hill to the east where the animals play
Crickets are singing, tall grasses do sway

In a soft balmy breeze of gossamer blend
Gently fanning the hollow where giant oaks bend

Toward the river that gently runs its slow course
Gliding through stones, feeding the moss

Gurgling quietly on this late summer scene
Little is stirring in the meadow so green

Off to the north birds gather to wing
Not to be seen till the following spring

I find myself sighing as I drink in the view
My spirit is rising, refreshed and brand new

Healed by nature in glorious array
Signaling hope for yet a new day

Hope for the meadow, hope for the hill
Hope for the traveler who bends to its' will

the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost

Dear Pegasus,  I see you are yielding to the rapture of spring also.  Well done.  I have been gone for four days or I would never have let your poem move without answering. I look forward to them. Love, Joyce

pegasus111:  I love this poem!  It really moves a nature lover like me and reveals the therapy that can be found there.

Pegasus,

Such refreshing poetic words about nature and it's all its beauty! I loved your poem.
