Country walk

sorenbarrett

Tobacco green wave on hills
golden wash of sun flowing
from morning's fountain spills
over undulating seas growing

Helios inscribes his time consuming arc
cloud numbers move across sky's clock
painting hands, shadows long and dark
dirt road behind, now a wake on my walk

                            Majestically penned here sorenbarrett!

                            I can imagine your inner monologue reading this, in a sage like tone, setting the scene of a stage play.

                            Well worth a favouriting, bravo, and I hope that all is well.
