Francine Roberts Poet Tetractys

Inspired By Nature

~~~ by Francine Roberts~~~
                 26/07/2011



 I 
begin
with ideas
brought by nature.
Nature fills me with sweet serenity.

It is my poetry's inspiration.
Sunsets, daybreaks,
waterfalls
bring me
joy.

                Poetry Comes From" contest ~~~

Carolyn Devonshire July 28, 2011 at 2:12 PM Nature truly is a wonderful source of inspiration, Joyce. I do my best writing outdoors, usually at the beach. Waterfalls do seem to bring my joy as well, though we have none here. It's a rare treat to see them. Wishing you success in Michael's contest! Love, Carolyn Francine Roberts July 28, 2011 at 6:46 PM they're not rare here, waterfalls everywhere, off the banks along side the highway, in the parks, all over the place
