Poetic Delight

poetic delight  
 
when the sun shines, then i delight  
from behind the hills,floods my sight  
and the fragrant perfume of the dawn  
smells like blissful Eden's incense  
 
i can't but be in an ecstatic height  
when the sunset throws a fading light  
when tall Eucalyptus stand in the twilight  
guardian of sweet dreams of the night  
 
where the beaten pathways bend  
up around the steep rocky mound  
and the far off small town surges  
into my view, then like a child i smile  
 
when delightful bee for juicy nectar spins  
around a fragrant vernal flower, it sucks  
smart maid of May of the sunny season  
my heart wings a flight of a thousand beats  
 
where a joyous grasshopper in the field skips  
a nimble critter that sizzles like a fresh drizzle  
on a slender reed, it rests to prob the green lands  
and give the poet a spell for a poetic delight  
 
when tiny rain drops on my roof, stings  
they tingle the caves of the darkened heart  
like a melody they penetrate into the night  
and awake the childhood dormant souvenirs
