Paulette Calasibetta Poet Lay

Magical Morning

A mossy pebbled path I took,
                                I came upon a babbling brook;
                                Meandering around the bend,
                            I could not see where it might end;
                             An idle copse of shrubs and trees,
                          Whistling in the calm, morning breeze;
                         Boughs shrouded with lichens hang low,
                               Dangling over the waters flow;
                             Dainty ruffles taunting the shore,
                           Smooth stones adorn the basin floor;
                             Sunlight streams, a magical light,
                         Appearing through the trees, a sprite!
