nature – Simon A Jackson

Meadow

Inhale the odour, inhale the scent.Carpet of stalks adorned in colours; do not lament.Bright enough to blind the birds up high.What a sight it must be to see as they fly.Purples and pinks, whites and blues.Each is more beautiful when you have views.So do not squander the presence of this gift.Their time is short andContinue reading “Meadow”

Blue Rose

Petals of azure.Have to say still not sure.A spring in the step.Placing your bet.Thorns on the shaft.Moments being daft.Hue of lime green.I’m feeling mean.Stab through the skin.Calling it a win. Soon it will wilt.Months filled with guilt.End of an era.Never been clearer.Loss of the leaves.Stolen by thieves.Dance on the wind.Obsessed ’til sinned.Withering away.Natures finality.

Look Around

Float along the endless windsWhile far below the water singsUp high above the fluffy cloudsSunlight keeps the skies alive Far below the tidal wavesWhere fish and fauna hide awayAll is black and silentBut still life is so vibrant Drift along the countless dunesAbove and below there are tunesAs the sun does bake the groundBeauty ofContinue reading “Look Around”

Assessing Nature

Have you ever stared at the leaves?Given study to how vines weave?Watched as the grass does grow?Or does it all mean naught to you? With vibrant colours of summers bloomThe taste of pollen continues to swarmSwollen pods of future fertilityTaken great distances across the sky Have you ever wondered how they grow?Or how far downContinue reading “Assessing Nature”
