The Beauty of Greenery

There is such colour all around
in this spring time of the year
looking out high above Windermere
indeed these colours are so clear

So many lovely shades out there
among the woods see many a tree
dark and light among the leaves
such beauty there for eyes to see

What contrast this does bring
against backdrop of the lake
sit and enjoy such peaceful scene
hold the moment with nice choc flake

There's so many shades of green
so special in light of midday sun
you can't begin to explain it's splendour
as it leaves you in state of stun

In light of all this beauty
how can one deny God's design?
no man could make all this
it's signature is simply divine


(Having spent a few days around Lake Windermere last year staying in hotel based up high above in the hills behind the lake itself showing such brilliant greenery in the woods and hills around the area, so gave me inspiration to write this as looking out from my room window was breathtaking and inspirational, a real poets paradise)
