Blessed My heart yearns for romance in this sacred place As waterfall tumbles with beauty and grace. I sense divine essence in water's cascade, A peaceful surrender in scent does pervade. My love of nature heeds my Lord's divine call As scenic flora shelters creatures so small. My life is in order this beautiful day, Sweet serenity surrounds me as I pray. I'm blessed by a rainbow appearing in mist As sun shines on droplets in purity kissed. 9-21-19 ~Fourth Place~ Picturesque Rhyme Poetry Contest Sponsor Eve Roper

THIS IS the BEST I've read for this contest. It is so lovely and flows with ease thru imagery of emotional and tangible beauty. I love each couplet. If this doesn't place it just won't make sense. Love, CayCay

gosh, this one too could have served as a psalm. I chose that same picture. I bet most of us did. I like how you added romance into it in the first part. this scene leads so well to all the scenarios you imagined for it.
