NATURE’S PERFECT MIRROR

I accepted the challenge on Linkedin to write a new version of A Perfect Summer Day that rhymes; now, it’s a love poem.

Broad brushstrokes of blue and gray
Meet to greet the perfect day.
The meandering swipes of teal
Mirror how you make me feel.
The foaming white swells drift apart,
As your kiss lingers in my heart.
My fingers reach for the brush,
But I tell my mind to hush.
No painting needed today
To capture the perfect day.
Nature speaks of the time
When you were only mine.

      I love writing poetry; it isn’t a struggle like writing a book. My mind must be prodding me in a different direction.

      Thank you. I love writing poetry while writing prose is similar to pulling teeth.
