Notes About The Poem

 

 

 

Sunset over a country pasture | Landscape, Scenery, Beautiful nature

Place of Sanctuary

A pasture with the charms it brings
    Glides through August, on robins' wings
Where comforting hums taste the night
     As I draft lyrics that invite
New music for wind's quiet thrill;
     Rhythms pulsing  which linger still
On grasses fresh, an olive shade
     While warbles of solace  cascade.

I sigh till breezes calm my mind
    On this sanctuary enshrined--
Then to hold the moonlight  and gaze
    At my rich pasture's lulled displays
And nature's own song wafts,replete
    Curling around my tunes so sweet:
How I in kindled thoughts divine
    Embrace this place...its leisure, mine.
