The ocean wind upon your face, the coolness of a breeze. The sound of waves rejoicing, the sound of rustling trees. The taste of salty water, the warmth of rocky sand. These are the things that make up, the beauty of the land. The sunrise in the morning, the smell of summer rain. The first snow fall in winter, the old time freedom train. A new born baby crying, children playing tag. Puppies running together, with happy tails that wag. Baseball games in the summer, people cheering in the stand. These are the things that make up, the beauty of the land. Flowers that bloom in spring time, rockets soaring in the sky. A fireworks diplay, on the fourth of july. People feeding pigeons, while sitting in the park. The smell of popcorn popping, the sound of a singing lark. snow on christmas morning, Lovers walking hand in hand, these are the things that make up, the beauty of the land.
I wanted to write a comment about your poems, especially this one and thank you for your very kind comments on my first poem, posted here at the Den. I’ve now read several of your poems, but I like this one particularly because of the overall rhythm. I’ve enjoyed reading all your poems and I see that we both have and share a strong faith in our God. I agree with the sentiments in your prayers and I am praying about many of the same issues that you mentioned. I’m still fighting the flu, but as I get better I’ll come back and read more of your work. Thanks for sharing your faith and talent with others, I’m sure it’s enriching and a blessing to many. ~ Shalom, Lese
