Walking On a Path

Sky is a bright yellow-tan hue Trees formed in a line, right up high The path of dirt giving what’s due People that walk produce a sigh Trees formed in a line, right up high The cool breeze within the stale air People that walk produce a sigh Carries flowers showing they care The cool breeze within the stale air Walking people looking sky high Carries flowers showing they care Acknowledges that of the sky Walking people looking sky high The trees sway, in presence of breeze Acknowledges that of the sky Hearing naught but a woman’s sneeze The trees sway, in presence of breeze The path of dirt giving what’s due Hearing naught but a woman’s sneeze Sky is a bright yellow-tan hue

First time ever to read a Pantoum, A rich poem talking about a boon - I smelled flowers on my way, The breeze hit me and made me sway - Words flipped images and they did create, An unforgettable, peaceful state!! --- Lovely work of art! Best Wishes!

I enjoyed this one. It was funny to me how the breeze carried a woman's sneeze and it was for the dirt on the path!!
