Inspiration

I sit amazed, hushed by mother nature’s waterfall glen As her rushing waters cascade inside my earthly soul Against the water’s tender current hides my secret den A haven of quiet against the tempest that is my console In the stillness of dawns’ aurora of early morning light My heart tempers faith like the soft fall of steely mist Droplets hang from moss and fern glistening silver bright My cheeks and lips a soft caress as if a fairy had kissed Gentle is the wind that wraps me completely inside of thee Bathed anew in your healing hold and natural soothing bliss No longer yearn as quietude transcends my open eyes to see In your loving embrace my life is an inspiration to exist written: 9-11-2019 Picturesque Rhyme Poetry Contest 2nd place

"My cheeks and lips a soft caress as if a fairy had kissed" - the poetical romanticism here is beautiful.
