BLUEBELLS IN THE WOOD
Bluebells in the wood
Sway in the dappled shade
To the tune of Spring
THISTLEDOWN, IN IDLE FLIGHT
Thistledown, in idle flight
Drifts upon the highland wind
Like ancestral spirits
BATHED IN SUMMER SUNSHINE
Bathed in summer sunshine
Gentle breezes stir the stems
But above in the golden sun
Grow an array of perfect gems
ICE AND RAIN
Ice and rain
Sleet and hail
Storm and tempest
Wind and gale
The rugged rock
Cannot prevail
THE SUMMER IS ENDING
The summer is ending
The flowers are dying
The meadows are still
And the geese are flying
SUMMER FLOWERS ARE BLOOMING
Summer flowers are blooming
In the scented meadows
Are the sun slowly sets
Lengthening the shadows
THE PEACEFUL VILLAGE
The peaceful village
In the frozen valley
Lay quietly beneath
Its winter cloak
BENDING IN THE BREEZE
Bending in the breeze
White stalks sway
Flower heads dancing
On a summer day
THE WINTER LAND LIES
The winter land lies
In suspended animation
Part of life’s eternal cycle
And with it, paused
Is its Infinite variety
But As the earth turns
Mother natures seed waits
Beneath the February snows
VOLCANOES ARE TERRIFYING
Volcanoes are terrifying
Just the thought of them is frightful
But pyroclastic eruptions
That’s just Nature at its most spiteful
