This is dedicated to all nature lover's and for Ron whose travels have him there today...in Cade's Cove, Great Smokey Mountain's National Park


Poem Artwork

Spectacular in beauty and grandiose in her span
Magnifiscent and breath-taking
Purple mountains grand
Cades Cove of the Smokies
Green as green can be
Cradeling her offspring
Quietly ... them and me
A hush of prestine beauty
As an Eagle gently soars
Shrieks a warning to his prey
A subtle dinner roar
Off there in the distance
In hedges where blueberries hide
A Black Bear rustles the bushes
Where succulent berries thrive
A pair of cubs search with her
She's teaching them to dine
Falling behind a little one
Stumbles with a wee whine
Momma reverses direction
A nip of the neck's all it takes
Young junior is lifted to safety
While his brother puts on his brakes
Sipping they drink from a creek bed
While Red Hawks circle above
Secure in this valley of beauty
Nestling down in Cade's Cove.

Have never been, but it calls. Oh how it calls. Love poems of place and this is no exception, Susan. A wonderful respite. Greens and wild things are a part of you, it's so clear in this write. They don't call 'em the Smokey Mountains for nothing as I can see in this beautiful pic. Thank you so much for sharing it!

I felt like I was standing in the trees watching the activity. I love nature and I love the expressions of talented writers, such as yourself ;) who can paint a landscape so vividly that the reader can't help but to get lost in the surroundings.

Now you are in my neck of the woods, Susan. Gosh I an reminded of monthly picnics there as a child...It has changed..traffic is unreal...just glad I had a chance to ford the streams ans witness the abandoned cabins...even pet the sorghum grinding mules and tast the corn bread before it became the place to be in the Smokies. Still, however, definitely worth the trip!

People think of the Rockies and often overlook the splendor of the Appalachians, tucked away in plain sight.

Thank you Susan, you know I'm a nature lover, and your poem is a gift to those of us who are, but also to those who aren't because sis you are so damn good at writing!;-) Beautiful work!

This was just . . . Good. I admit to not being a "fanatical" nature lover, but I love a beautiful view probably as well as does anyone. I am partial to animals of almost any species and rage when I see them abused; we have humans to abuse, leave the damn animals alone. Beautiful, vibrant and image-vivid poetry.
