Peace Comes To the Valley

The sun a golden glow The wind began to blow Rain a blessing for all Summer changed into fall Seeing the moon was blue The change would come we knew Trees will gently mellow Their leaves turning yellow Enemies will unite No longer will they fight Tom will marry Sally Peace comes to the valley

Blistering heat as usual, except that the suffering seems less . I'm still peeling from the beach. I was hoping the salt water shall be healing. Fall is peace, that's how I see it as well. Cute and hopeful! Harry and Sally will meet up again (movies) Bill, stay cool, your Cali friend Anaya.

I absolutely love the rhymes, creates such a mellifluous flow to your word weaving. I love how you’ve written “ rain a blessing for all” “ seeing the moon was blue…” how beautiful is this, so uplifting and flows with hope in a very soul warming manner. Enemies, i wish there were no such thing as enemies, as life is hard as it is for so many. And to be united is a beautiful thought. As always its a pleasure reading you
