Amalgam and surreal silver fusions
Flow between two ancient peaks, blinding visions
Setting sun’s angled brilliance showcasing
Norris Lake’s halo-ed magnificence
Distant layers of tonal blue – violet
Soaring smoke-y hills and mountains delight
The sky a waning clear winter-ed blue
Contrails weave their icy patterned plaids
Wispy white apparitions of other’s down
Seeing visions from east, west, north and south
Fluffy frump – l’d original gifts
Heaven-d kilts warm imaginations
Pristine golden pastures flank the roadside
Encircled in deciduous umber-
‘d lace, evergreen hemlocks and cedars grace
Dotted cantilevered black - painted
Dairy barns dressed in Pennsylvania
Dutch quilted icons and topped mossy
Green, cows graze in bucolic peace
Fieldstone chimneys sweetly send rising thanks
debora, but you are so much better than myself when it comes to descriptions....great writing. you too are my cup of tea!
Writing of nature is much like painting a landscape. You have lots of competition with wanabees who long to show how lovely nature can be. This piece is superbly written. If it were a painting, it would sell for a bundle...But we poor poets must accept accolades only! : ( Good for you, Debora! Raynette
