Notes About The Poem

Ashened

"There is a fountain inside of you, don't go around with an 
empty bucket." Rumi


Ashened white rocky hills rise
Covered with pines and oaks
Autumn's entrance has colored them
They wear orange and gold cloaks 

Upon the precipice above 
Looking over the scene
A feeling of awe overpowers
From this view I have seen    

God in His handiwork gives gifts
We can fill our empty souls
It doesn't cost any money
Just vision to behold

Ink Empress October 9, 2023 at 3:48 AM Some find it hard to grasp light when its sunlight and and when all is warm, but whatever we may have infront always good to remind others and ourselves to allow and appreciate it.
