Notes About The Poem

Constance's 'Write Five Beautiful Lines Contest ~ 3/13/25

The Wind’s Rhapsody

"The earth has music for those who will listen."
                                 ~Willam Shakespeare



I stand on a cliff overlooking an indigo sea,
watching its tranquil water before a storm.
Purple and amber clouds billow above me
as sunlight reflects upon onyx mountainsides...
and the wind plays a rhapsody only I can hear.
