ODE TO A TREE

The cool wind soothing my senses, tired and weary

The skies a blanket of azure beauty spread out above me

I lounge in peace with a carpet of green at my feet

As the lilting song of birds lull me to heaven and sleep

I look forward to awaken in the new morn

Appreciating what I was and have become with the dawn

  5. Ellen,

    Read 6 posts now. Could not visit earlier as my PC had been playing truant. Eyes of Heart is true eye opener. One does need motivation to move forward and it is nice if you find someone doing it to you but still better is if you go ahead without cretches. Devi's story was inspirational. One needs to find pearls at unexpected places. Nice composition about tree.

    Take care

  10. Hi Prams,

    Lovely to see you here! :-) How are you? Hope you're having a good weekend. Oh yes, it's drawn with colored pencils, a first. Because usually I use ordinary pencils, especially with fashion sketches. Thanks, Prams, for this lovely visit and for your message. God bless you and your loved ones!
