Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Bright sunbeams dance and dodge the forest treesa quilt work of light upon the forest floorin a dance of patterns conducted by the breezewavelets continue the ballet past the lake shorea rainbow of birds add their song to the dancesoothing small animals to scurry about contentlyby the lake young deer scuffle and pranceas overhead a hunting hawk gazes down intentlyseeing a landscape perfected by nature's handfor those who still dream of a promised landI've got 'a wide open country in my heart and romantic dreams in my head' Written October 6th, 2001 © on Oct 06 2001 06:51 AM PST   0 • 13
