Colors sift through air
Molten sun in swirling sky
Gilding dark hillsides.
Colors sift through air
Molten sun in swirling sky
Gilding dark hillsides.
With gentle babble
Brook rambles past grassy banks
Forest clothed in green.
Sun at edge of earth
Trees lean with gnarled branches
Thousand shades of green.
Trees extend young leaves
Green shimmers on deep blue lake
Lone stump on far shore.
Pale blush of cherries
Frames a twilight sky beyond
Waxing gibbous moon.
Before sun appears
Tendrils of color in sky
Peaks rise from darkness.
In watery woods
Mosses always brilliant green
Water falls through earth.
April snow showers
Cling to distant mountain peaks
Maples bloom below.
Shallow sky blue pool
Sheltered from tumbling river
Tracing slanted earth.
Buckeye leaves unfurl
Stretch wide hands to sun above
Bright green flags of spring.
