Joseph May Poet Quatrain

Nature's Song

 A rhythmic refrain on the shore
 As waves caress it more and more
 A gentle breeze in fluted strain
 On the shore a rhythmic refrain

 As clouds pass by I hear a tune
 As wispy notes above are strewn
 A cadence floating in the sky
 I hear a tune as clouds go by

 There is a song among the stars
 Twinkles make up musical bars
 Moonbeam rhythms play along
 Among the stars there is a song

 On moonbeams a lullaby rides
 As it shimmers upon the tides
 When slumber takes you to your dreams
 A lullaby rides on moonbeams

Through its imagery, repetitive structure, and thematic coherence, the poem invites readers to listen closely to the world around them, finding music in the rhythm of waves, the patterns of clouds, and the silence of the stars.
