Beholding Salad

The kinds of light that cast a shadow, Shine

and great seasons dance with a clarity

that chimes in resonance beyond the distant breeze

They spin and flicker not on the snowflake, but

on a seed, Enthusiasm captures the forest.

Oceans cry out beneath the waves to

welcome the courage shinning bright

Shimmering amongst the clouds onto the sea and sand

The fresh air of spring surrounds Each

sweet drop of torrential rain, expressing

the potency of a new afternoon

Cool as  the shade, warm as the sun.

Before morning awakens the sky

blades of grass stand idle, and listen

to the gracious night that never smiles

But teaches the trees and what they hide

Lessons of emotion, and shares their feelings

With the passing snail. Glad to whisper to the lazy frog.
