Ralph Sergi Poet Free verse

Cascade Serenade

Cascade Serenade

Surrounded by a forest of trees
As a bastion from the outer realm
An invisible glade that hides from man
But fauna hear the distant sound
Of water flowing effusively
And from the acme, sanguined rocks
A cascade streaming echoed chords
Of music in the liquidly air
Then to the nadir it descends
Into a torrential waters rage
To inundate the florid grass

The moon creeps in and all is still
Except the sound of crickets words
Extolling nature with their praise
(August 29, 2017)
