Landscape

Britain in bloom!

Landscape

Leaden skies above

rain upon and feed this land

so lush and verdant.

~The music behind your words stirs the imagination. I can feel the grass beneath my feet and see the dark skies above. Standing beside a cliff looking out over the sea with the setting you've suggested behind me makes this a wonderful and peaceful visit to your page.~

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Not all my pieces are so peaceful I am afraid. I often express the full range of emotions. Thank you very much and I am glad you enjoyed it.

Not every poem should entail the same sentiment or settings. You're welcome.

[Nadia Gerassimenko]

What a picturesque vibrancy and fragrance of our Mother Nature.

Very nice work John. Reading your words again reminded me that we have no rain. Our land has not been fed. While I like this work, it is rather a tease for those in the drought.

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Indeed never meant to be just grateful we have such verdant landscape. Would be nice to have balance though as we get a bit too much of it. Much sent across the Atlantic lol!

[Willard Wells]

Thanks for the dream.

wow prayers for rain.You are urging on the behalf of vegetation,John.Such a great way to empathize.I loved it:)

[John Alexander McFadyen]

Ah not always. I love the sun but often the earth needs balance and so as we cannot control it we should be thankful for the rain. In England it gives as that verdant landscape. Many thanks FCB.
