Image result for Wild Azaleas blooming Along a creek in Spring

Stilled, hushed solitude is required To set my soul on fire A natural setting desired Before spring's beauty expires Woodsy terrain along the creek Are where lovely azalea Blossoms spread, and sunlight seek Spring plants in their regalia These soften my soul to the Spirit Gray clouds become cobalt Words revealed to my merit I become worth my salt
