Strayed Sheep Poetry Contest
Sponsored by: Di11y Da11y

6th place in the contest

Explore contrasts in nature - farthest to the west Time is moving peacefully as sand in an hourglass A network of well-trodden paths which has attracted artists for generations Sheep and lambs graze happily here Idyllic, yet wild Blue sea that stretches to the horizon in all directions Scan the sky, take a minute or two notice the white alabaster gulls Salty wind tickles the nostrils Landscape with sheep in its rightful place A euphoric feeling of happiness

Anne-Lise, I do like how you suggest taking in the whole scene. That expresses a talent for looking at the world not as isolated scenes, but as more. You express so much wisdom and kindness. A pleasure to read!

Beautiful image and beautiful poem. The picture gives an idyllic ambiance. It is so much fun watching cows and sheep grazing in grass lands. At another end, there is the beauty of the aquamarine sea. Well composed, dear Anne. Have a Happy Christmas time. Love and hugs.
