Mother Nature Sings To Me

When bold colored memories languish, sepia vision distorts my sorrows and the scars branded across my heart are blurred by the moon and stars and in those wistful intervals, I find myself searching, lost in a daydream heart engaged in sweet release indulgent moments Moments when I find comfort in the arms of Mother Nature as she cradles me to her breast and sings softly in her sweet dulcet voice ~ "Gently now, gently, I'll hold you in my arms Close your weary eyes, my sweet little dove. Gently now, gently, you'll be safe from harms What you need more than anything is love. Gently now, gently, I'll rock you 'til you sleep Gently now, gently, I'll dry the tears you weep." My sorrow is eased when I hear her soft whispers in the wind Her soothing voice is a lullaby, calming me like a warm breath of summer golden blossoms take to wing fireflies flit in fields All these simple, yet wonderful things make me grateful for each indulgent moment that life allows me to languish in my memories September 30, 2020 ~ Impact and Metaphors Poetry Sponsor: Willam Kekaula Bold lines are from 4 of my previous poems: Sepia Vision~Indulgemt Moments~Gently Now, Gently, and Warm Breath of Summer~comingled with connecting thoughts.
