Painted By the Angels With Love

A perfect evening sky full of stars and
a bright, translucent crescent moon.

Hung like a blanket over the tree
filled mountain tops, bursting
in bloom.

The hillside is silently lazy with the
cast of yellow foliage smiling at
the glare of a perfect night.

Small embers sift through the windows
adorned with flickering light.

A quite little town sits in the valley
below. Everyone at home, near the
fire's glow.

Welcoming all the people,
in the distance a church tower is standing tall.
A cross atop it's steeple,
the warm feeling of come one, come all.

I am here on a blanket, kneeling on my knees,
watching the spruce trees as tall as the sky,
swaying in the peaceful, light breeze.

What a beautiful sight as I stare at the heavens
above. A wonderfully lit night,
painted by the angels with love.

Thank you so much, Arthur for the comment on this poem. I really like writing imagery poetry for I feel it allows you to share your thoughts with the reader. You must be the famous Arthur, Ms. Jan talks about, ha, ha, ha. Thank you for stopping by to read and it is nice to finally meet you....Sharon G. :)
