Nature Creates a Symphony
By Kathy Lynn

Rustlings in the wind
Clashes of tambourines
 Echoing their melodies
Skipping across the clouds

Leaves touch and sway
Dancing gracefully
Fluttering softly as they
Move seductively
 to the ground


Rain pitter, patters
On their upturned faces
Making a tapping sound

Rhythm for my symphony
Playing in the background

Lightening streaks across the sky
Clashing cymbals light up the night
Thunder’s sonic booms enthrall
Sending chills upon your spine 

Tree limbs conduct as the
Wind howls into the night
Contralto voices soothe
Blue jays in their flight

Beyond the stars in the sky
Reaching out to the heavens
Symphonic music crescendos
Streaking through the night

Select melodies played
throughout the night
as dusk turns to dawn
Nature’s fury is lost
in the mornings
 brilliant sunlight

I love your understanding of nature and how it indeed does play wonderful music if we but take the time to listen and understand it. I have written poems on this same subject. Love your poetry.
Hugs,
George

Your kinship with nature is most evident in these verses, Kathleen. I can completely relate and I agree with you. Today here, it is the song of the wind and the rain and the falling leaves with the occasional twitter of a small bird that dominate the stage of nature's symphony. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and best wishes,

Regis

You have captured the World Orchestra very well, Kathy.

The music of the night, the music of the day, the music in our minds!
