Notes About The Poem

Sitting On the Veranda

Awesome  panoramic scene

Balanced sounds from nature rush, touch my spirit

Cleansed soon will be the trees of rustling leaves

Dawn will awaken with a purple horizon

Earth will seem defeated with no life, then Spring

I see from comments below that it IS your scene. For some reason I was picturing fields like on a farm for where you lived!!

Is this maybe what you see when you are looking from your house? I pictured your place a different way but this scene looks very much like the scene from my sister's house in Arkansas, which is not too far from your state!! I enjoyed this,SAra

Andrea, This poem is about the changing of the seasons but I was influenced by the view from my porch..I don't get out much any more..I need to change my lifestyle so that I can have my few minutes in the morning with mother nature and my commune with God..Thanks for the comments..I will try to send you a few pictures taken from my porch..Sara

SS, There are several chair out on the porch but the leaves haven't reached good color yet and I have no idea what they will do this year..They seem to be crackly and dry even though we have had some rain this fall..We will see what Mother Nature offers..Thanks for the visit..Sara
