Severn flows,
relentless, sinuous,
coursing to the sea.
Mist-wraiths,
dance and rise
within riparian bounds.
Soft, still air
blankets fields.
ghostly trees stand guard.
Through
silken silence
a pheasant calls.

Furnace
Molten clouds forged in the fiery furnace of a new day. They coalesce and cool, steely grey shards cutting powder blue sky. Colours emerge from the greyness of the night. Heat from the forge warms and wakes the land. Nature stretches and stirs…

Misty Lakes
Cerulean sky, the heavens spanned
God paints the sky with gilded band.
Mist sits like water on folded land
fingers of white on His silk gloved hand .

Fire
Departing sun
sets fire to the sky
burning the clouds
while saying goodbye.

Nature’s National Flag
Nature takes her fiery orb,
raises it in an Autumn dawn
and flies her flag
for all to see.

Highlighters
Autumn morning
through the lens
God paints his gift
with marker pens!

Sun-cut silhouettes
Malvern stands
proud on patchwork land,
clouds graze sheep-like
across clear summer skies
sun-cut silhouettes
parade across harvest field.

Misty morn
Morning mist
Shroud soft blanket
muffled song…

Scruffy
The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue.

Pristine
A new day begins, a blank card on which we write our story. Pristine and perfect, there are no flaws or mistakes… yet!
