On Bucolic Setting

ON BUCOLIC SETTING

      Earth dressed in foliage with lush verdure,
       leafy green revolution  to assure.
      Undisciplined non-mowed lime-green meadow
     growing wild weeds for cattle, camel, deer, and doe.
                                                    
   Charcoal clouds in platoon started to frown.
    From verdant valley I was stepping down  
                                  to wide pastoral field.
                                Sudden gust made me thrilled.
                                I walked on furrows in wrinkles
                                       where periwinkle twinkled.
                  
  I leaped on ridges and creases of uneven path
   kicking tiny stones and pebbles in fake wrath  
   Wet leaves spread feral fragrance as clouds melted to pour
  Intermittent showers moistened soil arousing petrichor.

  Words picked:  verdant , clouds,  assure,  wild, sudden
