Whatever Weekend Being humble common pathways ere, I ought traveled nearby that lea, Past the margin of my home there, Where the daffodils fickle sprightly, As I shared the natural trail lead, General impressions befall o'er sunlit, E'er lighthearted to the bird's melodies, I travailed the character of it, Simple yet well organized, Amongst the laughter, ere rumored whisper, Neath a yellow sky, midst squinting eyes, Masses traverse and heed a rise to prosper, Yonder the verdant meadow rest, Spreads of marigolds and violet folds, Concerts of pleasantries and greets confess, A myriad of countless told's, Ere me, couples digress, In accompany of solitude, Tis a time out that be abreast, A sea of people floats a multitude, Be it so accordingly, As time drifts in emptied homes, Consequently, there is aplenty, As crowds trends above the loams, A tad of clouds sparse the sky, Disperses a legion directly afoot, The grassland, not shade as far one espy, Groups forward motion advances e'er square foot, Gleaming sunrays whips into action, Clouds impart a rainbow into the landscape, As they convert into a diminutive and fade into a fraction, And a colorful fancy fulfills a dreamscape, The call of an afternoon squanders the present, As Sun of a constant drops e'er so slightly, Fingered flip-flops drape backsides, marks a day well-spent, Chorale of winged birds past a flung open door, gradually, As dusk crowned heaven undresses the night, And a sequined of stars sparkle a whirling, whereat, Slumberous thoughts transpire while well-kept dreams ignite, Midnight's slide into a twilight that trips into dawn's golden chariot. 2020 February 22 *3rd Place* STRAND SELECT Y ,any form ,any theme ~~Brian Strand
