My Mountain Stream 

Anthony2 Comments

Stand near a stream 

Watch the waters gleam.

–

Rippling by 

Babbling sighs.

–

Soft soil gently holds bare feet 

Along with dampness and peat.

–

Here up high the scents never hurt 

I even enjoy the mountain dirt.

–

Gentle breeze

Swaying pine trees.

–

A mild wind suggestion

Adds to this gorgeous procession.

–

The sun warms you all about 

From the inside and out.

–

The waters, ice cold to the touch 

As the snowmelt does this much.

–

Crisp, clear, and crystal clean

Juxtaposed to waters of home, quite obscene.

–

A gull flies by, a gentle wish 

To spot the largest swimming fish.

–

The sky is blue with no rain in sight 

This day, my little refuge, until a night..

Evening Rains: Lune Series

AnthonyLeave a comment

Gentle rain falls

Soft mist refreshes everything, alive

With cool water.

–

Grass, trees, plants

Drink the fresh crystalline waters

Quenching all thirsts.

–

A distant flash

I can’t hear thunder yet

But it’s coming.

–

Storm clouds gather

The sky now looks orange

More lightning flashes.

–

The storm arrives

As the rain picks up

Now a downpour.

–

Taps away steadily

Against my bedroom window pane

Which relaxes me.

–

A sudden flash

Followed by crashes of thunder

And rushing wind.

–

Steady rain continues

The storm then eases up

Much softer now.

–

Closing my eyes

The gentle rain coaxes me

To needed rest.

–

Soft gentle blackness

Raindrops accompany me to bliss

Sleep and dreams…
