Valley Haven

Valley Haven Swooping down across the valley, Glistening green sequins reflecting the sun, Dozens of green parrots playfully rally As their sunset ritual has begun. Misty rain along valley walls Brings a mystical Hawaiian rainbow Sweetening the air as it gently falls Enlivening the tropical foliage below. I watch, enchanted, from my lanai Awed by nature's brilliant display Surely, none is more fortunate than I To dwell in such beauty, day by day. My refuge during this challenging time With the world appearing tempest tossed This valley exudes an atmosphere sublime Assuring me that hope is not lost. Molly Moore

Cool! It rhymes with such scenic beautiful imagery. Do you live in Hawaii? I've never been there but I imagine it to beautiful as you described.

Yes, luckily I live in Hawaii. Although it has changed a lot over the years and we have all the modern urban troubles, it still is beautiful. Thank you, Susan, for your nice comment. Happy writing, Molly

I also see green parrots from my lanai and wish I could see endemic birds, but, like you, I am happy to enjoy warmth, sunshine, water and fragrance throughout the year! Aloha 'oe!
