Nature's Masterpiece Collaboration With Poet Joseph May

Nature’s masterpiece is divinely spun She paints the sunset at a glance Her brushstrokes at dawn are second to none Across the landscape the colors dance She paints the sunset at a glance With a serenity that transforms my soul Across the landscape the colors dance As pastel skies sweep across the knoll With serenity that transforms my soul I wait for the stars as her palette gleams As pastel skies sweep across the knoll I’ve been given a second chance to dream I wait for the stars as her pallet gleams Her brushstrokes at dawn are second to none I’ve been given a second chance to dream Nature’s masterpiece is divinely spun Heidi Sands and Joseph May *A special acknowledgement to Joseph May for his wonderful writing in this collaboration and incredible patience as this one was difficult for me. Thank you. 7/18/17

Thank you Chris. I am new to pantoum's and have only done a few and for some reason this was the hardest poem I have ever done. I struggled with the form. I am so happy you like it! :)
