TAKE A STROLL
by

JOHN M. ARRIBAS



Take a stroll through the forest in early spring
Nature will stun you,  it’s a beautiful thing
A walk in the woods will fill you with awe
The fresh smelling air not savored before
Its early morning the ground is still damp
I’m causing damage where ever I tramp


Minuscule plants growing under my feet 
Tiny flowers and petals, an optical treat
A bird is warbling his good morning tune
Soon he is countered with a call from a loon
When I stand still there’s a noticeable din
But when I move a new silence begins


A bee is searching for a succulent bloom
A myriad of flowers all his to consume 
Buds are sprouting from bushes and trees
The  rebirth of nature as cold weather flees
Continuing my walk I encounter a glade
Covered with flowers every color and shade

 
Tall reeds and grasses  still sporting dew
Reflect the suns rays like crystals often do  
Tiny rainbows appear as the dew beads glisten
Then fade away as the breeze moves the prism
This pristine meadow under azure skies
Home to insects and thousand of flies
Take A Stroll (2)


Flocks of birds soon will descend
Devouring the buzzing meals to the end
A snapping twig reaches my ear
A young buck and an six point deer
They stand there frozen an idyllic display
Then in an instant they’ve bounded away


This magnificent scenario occurs every day
A tiny sampling of natures endless arrays
There’s still some mist hovering over the glade
The warming sun will soon join the parade
A mixed treasure of flowering scents
Changes with  each zephyr and never relents


With so much activity its hard to explain
The peaceful tranquility continues to reign
Ludwig created  images that seldom exist
He painted these pictures while penning his sixth
The feeling and sense of harmonious bliss
Nature unblemished, soon to be missed


Man will soon discover this untouched paradise
This heaven on earth is a treat for anyone’s eyes
They’ll develop  home sites so all can enjoy
Unfortunately all of this beauty they will destroy
Big square houses with manicured lawns
The fish in the stream no longer spawns


A gated community with pools in the rear
A local commented “ what the hell  happened here?”
