I wrote this for Word Challenge 2


At Spirit Musings


“Words”

“Power Of Nature”


 


Once


The playground of many


Fields and heaven


Gauze…


Melancholic view


Bevy of larks


Survey of high priority


Golden horizons now gone


Not translucent anymore


As a barge of obsidian


Sluggish volcano glass


Slowly covers up reed’


Once again


The power of nature


Has spoken


 


~*~*~

And with the help of that little demon of mine “Chuck”


“Larks Ascent”


 


A bevy of larks


Fly as if disturbed


From reed’ fields


By the rumble


Of a distant volcano


With high priority


They survey


Contours of translucent earth


Coursing the sky


With the steadied ease


Of a sluggish barge


Steering


Between sun


And obsidian clouds


As if avoiding


A butterfly hunter’ gauze
