Appalachian Seasons

We welcome Spring with blooms From bright red and yellow tulips It feels like the season of flumes With the scent of fresh hyssops Summer skies roll on around With gently floating white clouds Fresh mown lawns cover the ground Leaving crisp, emerald shrouds When Autumn happens through With orange, red and amber hues The entire world is a changed view Mountains painted brilliantly new Winter covers the world in white Enchanting icicles hanging from trees All the world is dazzling even at night It’s a wonderland of a peaceful freeze Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter In the Appalachian Mountains we find There is no place to be found any better Seasons of bliss surround us with a design God’s paintbrush has chosen our world To leave impressions of such joy and beauty Colors assorted, mixed and swirled To create a vision of dreamy bounty ©July 29, 2014 Written for Vibrant Verses Contest

ahhh, I lived in Greenville S.C. for 5 years, at the foothills of Appalachia. This poem takes me back there, To Lake Lure and Chimney ROck, and many other scenic spots.
