Background
Poetry of encouragement and inspiration
|
A brief respite arranged for your delight,
As Nature's beauty casts her healing spell.
A chance invite to stroll on starry night,
'Neath skies so crisp and clear, like tolling bell.
Smiling despite your gravity of plight,
Will heavy heartedness and stress dispel.
Assured, your soul reflects the silver moon,
As one with Nature you've become in tune.
