Heidi Sands Poet Sonnet

Notes About The Poem

Nature Tames

I enter the field, colored by sun's flames
Dark distant mountains, mystery lures
Life now survival, without any games
I am alone, reliant on my own cures

The bright distant light, soaks me with warm hope
As I make my own path through the tall grass
There is a reason that I strive to cope
To reach dreams that could break easy like glass

My heart is softened by few clouds that drift
Lifting my spirit to some place unknown
That eliminates my fears, as they sift
Falling into the sunset that is shown

It is all in the way that nature tames
I enter the field colored by sun's flames
