Scenery medley contrasts
Marshes and meadows
Sunshine and shadows
Gentle ripples on the calm river
Foaming rapids in white water
The jungle echoes eerily in the semi-darkness
In daylight creepy-crawlies cleared the mess.
Peasants toiling and pheasants scratching
as I spy a cricket somersaulting
The cactus the desert's prickly femme-fatale
elsewhere a lone leaf floats in the canal
Prairie dogs go popping
while hares go hopping
and ladies go shopping
Swans have formed a fine V-line
The flora too is divine
as bees nosedive in bee-line.
Siesta seizes birdlovers too
Thus they miss out on the hoopoe's song
For the hoopoe, it does not sing on cue
since a bird may sing anytime to woo.
Green herbs and white mushrooms
Ah, birdie plumes and floral blooms
What a medley eh of contrasting scenery
Evening twilight and dawning greenery
Ah, wherever you go nature's so panoramic
While we make and take pictures
God actually made what's so picturesque!

this is some purely beautiful collection
of images for heart, mind and soul- to soothe.
and some delivery of them images, not easy to encapsulate in words
the charm that is on offer ...all around us.
loved the smooth flow and the rhythm. some craftswomanship there i say.
long time between your last and this one...worth waiting i say.

This was wonderful! I loved the bird's eye view of this lovely planet. From the little critters to the mountaintops.
Your imagery was detailed, the flow was smooth, and it was full of beauty, playfulness, and reverence.
Thanks for sharing :)

pheasants scratching ...this is the male's trait

exsholient poetry

Hi, I just want interaction, so I know if people agree with my thoughts, or if they don't agree ,their reasons and my rebuttal might follow.
Laurels maybe in competitions would be nice.
Your comment was difficult in connotations, u have a difficult vocab. I'm a simple poetess lazy busy to google difficult words.
Thanx anyway. If u explain fine.

Phew.... ye go quite an audience....i'm most jealous...(not really)
Oh it's coz I m over friendly, invite friends to exchange thoughts, encourage and compliment others and write poetry which is simply not conventional so they get an easterners views and outlook while the easterners themselves also get entertainment of familiarity in my poem. So anybody could get readers that way so u really can't envy me dear poet.

Scenery Medley Contrasts - even the title took some real talent to put together.
"Peasants..pheasants" - you are more than "a simple poetess."

Best best wishes.

The passion in which you write about nature is pretty awesome. Makes me wish I was surrounded by all the things you write of in this melodic scene.
