I Rested Upon a Tall Mountain Top

I Rested Upon A Tall Mountain Top I journeyed into a one-eyed pristine land, nobody could see to destroy its beauty. There lay rose inspiring colors on demand, there was, keeping Nature intact as a duty. I journeyed into that heavenly soft dream, nobody there was in a wasteful hurry. Goodness always rained down it did seem, like snow falling in a gentle flurry. I rested in that clear and mellow view, lone traveler seeking no other new path. Embracing beauty's hold that is so true, and seeing eternity in its endless math. I rested upon a tall mountain top, from there I saw spreading beauty nonstop. Robert J. Lindley, 1-24-2016 Note. My muse accused me of being lazy and told me to get up and write you clod. I typed the first verse--then suddenly the rest flowed like a gentle clear stream.. I said thank you muse, she replied, "next time don't be so damn lazy." "Next time I'll give the first verse and your next thirteen verses had better be great!"

Your muse is very wise. You were filling up after the appetizer but she made you prepare the entree' and the dessert. I hope she keeps cracking the whip over you.
