River Ness Stroll In the Autumn

A Spring stroll down the River Ness With it's sparkling water fresh to finesse The sun above as the blue sky roams Inverness is my Highland home Mountain back drop with heather's and ferns Greenery so lush, that makes heads turn Wildlife in wander going about their day Beautiful ducks on the water in plumage display Tourists aplenty so far from home Enjoying their holiday as they riverfront roam With Highland hospitality and abundant fare On their postcards they write in enjoyment declare My stroll now over as I head back up river The evening closes seeing Spring deliver Greened leaves now blessed with pinky gowns In a couple of weeks they'll drift down I hope you have enjoyed this River Ness stroll I feel so humbled on nature's patrol The scenery and sounds of nature and life Are all around and it's beautifully rife. http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/inverness.php

Breathtaking beauty in your homeland, James! How I wish I could take such a walk to enjoy autumn beauty in Inverness. I don't need a postcard; your poem describes it so vividly. Love you, Carolyn
