Nature's a Wizard

She morphs into a sultry Summer's morn garbed in a cloak of alabaster fog: gossamer thin, and casually worn. And echoing the croaks of a bullfrog: She stops to carry on a dialogue, with croaks too numerous to catalog. Slipping on Her slippers of sparkling dew: She inks an ebony horizon red; as the sun rises in a sky of blue. Shadows get resurrected from the dead: while spiders dangling from a silken thread spin dream-catcher webs that fill flies with dread. Nature's a wizard at staging effects; like vermilion sunsets, jungles of green, and vivid colors of birds and insects. Wherever we go, She's already been: let's keep Her rivers, seas, and oceans clean: Her mood can change; She's not always serene. I hear Her whisper secrets to the wind: like Spring's approaching, or the ice has thinned.

Emile, I see a poem that traced roots back from an earlier dawn, What was felt, a Sonnet reaching for the sublime. -Richard

Happy holidays to you too my friend. Who was it that said? "I condone the spirit of "live for the moment and enjoy life." It's not a sin to be happy!" -You

Beautiful Sonnet Emile. This is almost a lost art form, but show a mastery. I especially love the first line "She morphs into a sultry summer's morn". Well done!
