A Picturesque

a crimson ball of fire
descending in the unknown
mirroring on the roaring seas,

lofty mountains standing undeterred
silhoeutting enchantingly against the blushing azure,

glimpses of trio of birds
their flight, promising no horizons,

pruned trees dancing in
esoteric merriment,

leaves rustling gently
in the zephyr
their whispers indecipherable,

Clouds parting and
then again embracing
enthralling colossus imagery,

stars blinking in
awesome awareness
sharing knowing smiles,

an aura of tranquility and gay,

what a contentment!
To live life
amidst nature's simple
bliss of living..

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
