Flash of Youth

One again hears the rendition of the songbird’s morning tide trill, amongst shades of trembling light that, which still meanders upon the hillside, where unsung meadows interact in dishevelled jade, here were one to relive again if only a fleeting moment, an indulgence of nostalgia that for me, cements in my mind my youth and my esteem for you. “A portrait of foreverness”. © Harry J Horsman 2012

I love it, this is STANDARD Harry Horseman!!! and it's darn good. Speaking of the songbirds, we have barn swallows on our garage. It's so cool to see them building a second next now that their baby has gotten bigger.They fly all about when I pull into the driveway and they sing so cutely.
