-Raise Your Glass

Radiant golden daffodils sway in the breeze

In air pure and clear

Fluffy white cotton ball clouds watch over

A pastel coloured rainbow gradually appears


Distant melody of a trickling brook 

A vibrant coloured butterfly flutters passed

Chirping  birds happily converse 

So to the splendour of nature ….please raise your glass!

Metaphorically, I frequently do, Deb. I’ve been enthralled by nature for as long as I can recall. Thus, I raise my glass to she and you. A smashing descriptive write.
