Living Picture

Living Picture Walking through the park in the cool of the evening. In the distance; I hear birds utter a succession of light chirping. I feel the wind; a gift from the trees. Falling ever so gently; vivid autumn leaves. Dark cheerless clouds cradle the mysterious brimming moon. Ivy leaves growing across the old iron fence gathering into festoons. All around me is a plethora of picturesque scenery... Waiting to be explored; as I continue on my journey.

Erin, your poem "Living Picture" is a beautiful and evocative ode to nature. I can almost feel the cool evening breeze and see the vivid autumn leaves falling as I read your words. Your imagery is so vivid and descriptive that I feel like I am walking right through the park with you. I especially love the line "Dark cheerless clouds cradle the mysterious brimming moon." It's such a haunting and evocative image. Thank you for sharing your beautiful poem with us.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
