A Simple Beauty Poem by Martin Moore

A SIMPLE BEAUTY
The dew bejewelled clover leaf
A trinity of pearls
Embossed the tolerance of my thoughts.
Its fulgent flash appeared so brief
The riffle of its whirls
Magnificent, my early morning walk.
Pearlescent foliar performance
Amid the common throng
Encapsulates this bright September morn.
Its simple beauty far outweighs
The blackbird's clever song
Resonating from within a bent blackthorn.
The rosehip, acorn, sloe and haw
The barren branch's gems
Mirrored in the misty light of day
My inner artist's eye would draw
These autumn coloured stems
Before their simple beauty fades away.
