A heavy haze is rolling in


settling over the mountains


draping them in a cloak of gray


hiding the sun


that earlier warmed


the rolling green hills


This is a place where nature plays


a perfect spot to stop and rest


as beauty around you spills


  Peace and tranquility


surround  you  as you pause


among the hills


Serenity seems to seep from nature


like a warm cape


that caresses your soul


Your peaceful interlude is interrupted


the storm is moving toward you


as dark rain filled clouds


billow and roll closer


swallowing up the landscape

A perfect capture of that moment in nature when there is the impact and then the transition... the comfort around the shoulders that makes you feel warmly at one with the world - and then the slight detachment and the "push" to move on and move away. A beautiful pastoral work, Carole, thank you. Kate xx
