Cadence

A lovely cadence fills sounds of earth as meadows waken with songs of birds. Music that sweetens pleasures and worth beat of each song--notes instead of words. The trees rustle their spritely replies, as summer breeze leads their melodies, so that breeze and leaves can improvise a soft tempo that finds devotees. Purple clouds gather, thunder is heard its rumbles causing lightning's bold flash. Storm beats a rhythm, all are stirred-- viola's bass mourns and cymbals crash. Soon, raindrops pound their opening, softening their beat to gentle song. Drops fall on willows--we want to sing, Earth's cadence was around all along! February 2, 2023 for "Writing Challenge--C Words--Poetry Contest Sponsored by Constance La France Cadence theme First Place!
