Nature Mother

Nature Mother

Like  the gentle touch of a lamb is a summer rain
That greens the ferns and perks faltering flowers,
The soft roll of thunder saying rain is near,
Receding when soothing drops start to fall.
Hot winds hide away when soft mists appear,
Nature showing her Mother side 
With her own tender tears

exceptional free verse. I'm glad to see that it's getting the attention it so richly deserves. A genre not easily mastered.

This is a genre I cannot do well at all. This seems seamless even in it's brevity. Well done Sunlite.

Thank you, David. I've been reading a book spasmodically called "The Celtic Way of Prayer."

I love this Sunlite! I love refreshing rain. It cleans the air and the plants, sustaining them. You have given personalization to Mother Nature with your words. : )
