The maples,
elms, dogwoods and magnolias are splendid
The lushness of
green grasses, gorgeously carpet the land
The waters of
life; oceans, rivers, lakes and streams
Waterfalls and
every small pond
God’s gifts all
bathed in the sweet, golden rays of the sun
One can only
revel in such blissful, glorious beauty
When summer
flowers in full bloom
Dance and sway with
the subtle breezes
I am reminded of
summers past and wax nostalgic
Of dreamscapes
and hidden paradises
Of desirable places
I’ve yet to see
Each day the sun
rises and sets on many horizons
And upon the
mountains of many distant plaines
The breadth of
their magnificence evokes humble awe
And blesses one
with longings for worldly adventures
To feel exotic
lands beneath one’s feet
To bask in their
scenery, greenery and wondrous splendor
There is still
magic in this old world
There are
secrets yet to be revealed
Within this
bounty, rightly named “Earth”
Though her
existence be thoughtlessly challenged
By the chaotic
masses of humanity
Beneath pale
blue skies and pure-white, wispy clouds
This house where
dreams are manifest and breathe with life
Upon deep
emerald seas of captivating effervescence
Mere words can
be equated as “un-just” in their failings
To describe the
indescribable
This world, this
Eden…
This /home/
which we live*
