How Green The Tundra Sleeps

aDarkerMind

How green the tundra sleeps.

Rejoice with voice and heart-fealt trilogy.

Three times each day all flowers show 

As shapes our sleep. Alone we never be.

 

No wound is deep enough to shadow this.

Let beauty be the cause of wind and rain.

Let the Northern Star bring sunshine in a cup.

Let all who still believe. This sweet domain.

 

To this world so shall we all one day return.

How green our Tundra sleeps when moon departs.

To another world beyond this world we see.

Be strong enough to listen to your heart;

 

Let all who still believe

This sweet domain;

    To sleep green has a nice feel to it. Fresh, new, peaceful, growing, youthful, healthy are all words that come to mind.

                                  Beautiful poem Melvin. I particularly like the following line:

                                  Be strong enough to listen to your
                                  heart.

                                  I found hope here and new growth. Lovely.
