Summer Serenity Poem by Matthew Densley

Summer Serenity



I love to rest my head on a grassy pillow
Near the waving branches of a willow
Not a care in the air of the summertime
Just peaceful calm that's soothing sublime

Nature opens her loving arms to me
Caresses in a way that sets the soul free
The suns sweet kiss is soft and warming
Sweet as the flowers it is forming

The breeze through the trees whispers my name
And when it does my worries are fading and tame
A silence as golden as the sun that's shining
The clouds showing off their silver lining

Watching the creature crawling by
Watching the birds swoop and fly
The birds singing their soulful song
Every hour, all day long

The gentle sound of a nearby stream
The waters that flow me into a dream
I don't a penny to enjoy the sunshine
Nature's free and nature's mine

Seeing what things come from her womb
The harmonious serenity of nature in bloom
All of the life mother earth has been giving
Shows me the grace and the beauty of living

Nice flowing, peaceful poem. Very natural. We need pieces like this to remind us of the beauty all around us.
