To The Sun

Burning, golden heat,
Streams of ember fuelled bright light,
This land comes to bloom.

2. To The Moon

Mysterious ball,
Haunting the black still of night,
Forcing the tides in.

3. To The Stars

Glitter, twinkle, shine,
Talcum upon the canvas,
Countless stars dazzle.

4. The Solar System

Swirling and twirling,
A gravitational pull,
Saturn, Earth and Mars.

5. The Ocean Waves

Watch the ocean wave,
Goodbye, it chants, to the calm,
Crash the rocks; power.

6. For The Sea

Pebble dances on
the current ripples; skimming,
Reach the sea’s deep floor.

7. Sandy Shore

Inch wearily down,
The dunes cushion the restful,
Comfort in each grain.

8. Mighty Mountain

Diminished beneath,
Towering nature stands proud,
Bold mighty mountain.

9. Volcano Roar

Rumble; make fire,
Lava flow and trees tumble,
Dramatic scene; ash.

10. River Flow

From trickle it came,
Striding like Goliath came,
Now smooth harmony.

11. Daylight

Creep up; slowly rise,
Paint the break in red of morn,
Sleepers yawn and wake.

12. Darkness

Cloudy night, no stars,
Street lamps turned darker than black,
Serene and eerie.

13. Cold Air

Rows of people quake,
Shake in the shivering freeze,
Winter chills the bone.

14. Warm Breeze

Clothing slips; undress,
The warmth of a summer wind,
Bending daffodils.

15. Tall Tree

Sleek, slender branches,
Heavens closest creation,
Green leaves; solid bark.

16. Petals

Spiritual ring,
Loop around the sacred rose,
A petal surround.

17. Leaves

Absorbing sunlight,
Reaching out; decorative,
Crunch under my feet.

18. Dried Grass

Water never comes,
Brown and dusty blades remain,
Dried barren desert.

19. Green Grass

Flourishing springtime,
Shoots pushing through aiming high,
Green and vigorous.

20. Wild Woods

Nettles, flowers, trees,
A lake of lily pads; frogs,
Untamed – natural.
