Keith Robson Poet Rhyme

The Glowing Faces of Nature

Shivering lightning
quills of silver
Signed their names
on skies of grey,
A story written many
times
In many a different
way,
On ships of old,
Saint Elmo’s fire
Danced  silently
around the mast
So many dancing
glowing ghosts
Created a celestial
cast.


The winds blew cold,
then died away
Into their
insignificance,
As Autumn leaves
tossed everywhere
Until the last notes
of their dance,
Then suddenly pure
silence reigned
As trees stood still
in morning mist,
Adorned in dew drop
necklaces
Those diamonds that
the dawn had kissed.


In a glade between
the forests
Where the firefly’s
gently played,
In the shade of
early twilight
Glowed the patterns
that they made,
As the shadows
danced so softly
Through the dying
sunset’s calms
There was a deep
sense of seclusion
 In Mother Natures
outstretched arms…
