A Lifting Of My Heart Poem by Ernestine Northover
A Lifting Of My Heart
I stepped over the rickety wooden stile,
and entered a meadow of sweetness.
Clover, daisies and buttercups
all intermingled in a silent chorus of song.
Insects buzzed in the warming sun,
and the country air
filled my lungs
with a sharp freshness.
Looking into the distance,
I watched, as a flock of birds
took to the air,
swooping across the sky,
calling joyously
in their freedom.
The World had stopped to give me
one afternoon
of sheer exhilaration.
I ran through the flowers,
I waved to the birds,
and felt a lifting of my heart.
This was paradise,
even if just for a short time,
but a time in which to refresh and energize
my body and spirit.
A time also
to renew my awareness
of the beauty of nature,
and its wonderful panorama,
displayed in all its serenity.
This is a whole trust when irritation come, obey and carry out his word in dealing with them this is a super natural reponse and its wonderfully penned from you...lovely Ernestine.
The finest therapy for a weary soul just get out into the open air and use your eyes and ears to full extent. We miss so much concentrating on work most often confined within the souless vista of a city
