Just Whiling Away
All before was green
The pool like glass, serene
Waterboatmen skated by
A Kingfisher flashed the eye
The Dragonfly mates on wing
As distant Warblers sing
The rushes bend and sway
As the Heron stalks his prey
Flowerheads stretch their petals
The Red Admiral lands and settles
Spreads his wings , takes the sun
Soaks the heat as nectars won
All is calm beneath blue skies
Ripple given by the odd Trout rise
Breezes borne of butterfly wings
Sweet the air a fragrance brings
Earth and air the quiet share
Picture drawn of natures care
Colours taunt, flaunt the eye
Sit and watch as time goes by
