Racing through fields with hyacinths pink The wind mushes my hair, stroking my nape As cicadas hum out to me of life's grandeur, That I pause pause as bouyant brooks roll on : All around me the enchantment of earth mother, Her waft replaying tales of seasons we lead... Together we are one, listening kindly Amid creation's songs without question Until night's melody gradually ends. Here I pirouette beneath the crown of sky, Moist grasses tickling my feet, While fragrant air peals songs of joy and agony Until ancient forest trees nod at me, I nod back, a rosy twinkle on my lips Awakening the little girl within. ..................... Brian's V Contest

And earth mother wipes my furrowed brow* Her sweet breeze blows my long tender locks* My ship, Queen of the Sea with its tall mermaid prow* Cruises on in to paradise's welcoming docks.* Again your fine creation must go into my fav's here.

This is so sweet. I enjoyed it and felt like I had escaped from the moment, just lost in the poem. Well done :)

Ah, so this is what an ode is. I had truthfully wondered, and now here she is.... nicely written. "together we are one" - this is how I feel in spring, summer, and fall. Winter, not so much.
