fish and frogs deer and doe the sky above, the earth below each blade of grass each leaf, each tree performing nature's symphony lightening flashes dust and ashes autumn leaves bumble bees thunderstorms ants that swarm all singing mother nature's song sun shining bright pale moonlight stars that glow winds that blow cosmic rays birds of prey all part of nature's interplay bright spring flowers summer showers plums and peaches sandy beaches flora, fauna shifting sands performing mother nature's dance cold winter days fog and haze springtime storms nights, soft and warm each weather pattern every season all a part of nature's reason copyright2001 Lyra Nesius |

Lyra, This was a wonderful assault on the senses! Your words brought stunning visuals and are a flowing reminder of Nature's all-encompassing beauty. ~What is cherished most is what must be the hardest fought for.~ |

the essence of nature is here alright, would have liked to see the rhyme continue in the middle stanza to help keep the flow... thunder storms ants that swarm the leaves that fall the frost that forms?  that suggestion is no good I see, you've got snow at the top  nicely done!

This is a most excellent write, Lyra. I was going to quote a verse here in my reply, as my favorite, but then that would be the entire poem. |
