Along Skips a Girl With the Sun In Her Smile - Story Poem
~
Along skips a girl with the sun in her smile,
patchwork illusions, the valleys alight
Dragonflies hover. mid-air, in their style,
meadowlark melodies echo in flight
All come to see as she sparkles and shines,
free as a hummingbird greeting a rose
Buttercups twirl 'side pirouette pines,
pristine reflections her beauty now shows
Days tend to wander when warmth saunters in,
whimsical moments adrift on a breeze
Delicate wishes some hoped to begin,
promises made beneath sycamore trees
Footsteps so gentle, the irises blush,
crimson designs below heavens conceal
Canopies shadow a whispering hush,
secrets the marigolds long to reveal
Frolicking mornings her eyes call their own,
dew drop reminders of shimmering gaze
No need to worry, she’s happy alone,
nature is calling and these are her days
Butterfly tickles of flittering wing,
flurries of petal’d confetti do fall
Daffodils stand as the hyacinth sing,
dressed ever fragrant, this eve for the ball
Blowing a kiss to the tangerine sky,
plucking the leaf of a riverside fern
Waving hello to a bee buzzing by,
following pathways however they turn
Towards the horizon she strolls happily,
leaving a presence that’s sure to beguile
Springtime arrives and the whole world can see,
along skips a girl with the sun in her smile
