The Golden Land Poem by alan brown

Fireflies sparkled
like a sprinkling of fairy dust
in the midnight sky.
As shooting stars danced
leaving trails of neon light
as they passed us by.

Clouds fluffy and light
broke up the darkness
as the moon glistened
reflecting golden light
upon their whitened rims.

A midnight rainbow arched
over the rim of the trees
As the moist air
rose above the canopy.
Bringing wonder to the land.

Birds lifted into the dawn
singing songs of joy
to the discerning ear.
As the sun lifted
returning light
to the darkened night.

The heat rose
in shimmering waves of light
As the mystery of nature
left its mark
upon the golden land.
The new day had just began
