The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”.  You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you.  More info can be found in the link below.


She holds her head high, so proudly

This woman, who has colored the lands

In hues of pink, and yellow, and green

With simply a raise of her hands

Summoning the sun, over mountains

She sees the flowers dance with mirth

Giddy, like a child, she laughs along

She has given new life, to the Earth

Mother Nature Rebels ~ #poetry of a #storm

The sunlight fades, ever fast, away

As darkening clouds, obscure the day

Bringing daggers, lights against the gloom

With a thunderous roar, and shattering boom

Over the lands, to quench an insatiable thirst

Pelting down, from the skies, a raucous cloudburst

Flooding over the streets and sidewalks, where

People run to escape, this torrential nightmare

The falling of the rain is, how Mother Nature rebels

Until she’s had enough, then, the rain she will quell

 

Author’s Note:  I wrote this while listening to a thunderstorm.  The skies opened up and it poured!!  I love writing to that sound   🙂

Follow her through lush forest greens

The likes of which you’ve never seen

Let your imagination run endlessly wild

Leaving your senses mesmerized, beguiled

Wide-eyed wonders, hidden deep in this place

Breathe in, Mother Nature, allow her embrace

For she holds the key, of bliss, serenity

Emblazoned with beauty, her grandest marquee

She is beautiful

In a wicked way

She makes the children smile

As they romp playfully about

She smirks as the rest

Struggle to find warmth

And nature trembles

As she snickers under her cold breath

No mercy in her icy grin

No comfort from the storm

Under radiant light, once again, reborn

A whispering breeze across the vibrant sky

She awakens with the gentle call of morn.

Life on Earth heaves a gentle sigh

For she is the mountain that reigns above

And the lands found down below

Delicate beauty, who bestows with love

As she watches her mighty Earth grow
