Gentle Pleasures
Across the pastures, lush and green,
Fine horses dance and prance proudly
Inspirational reflections set the scene
As the sound of hooves stir about loudly
A backdrop of heavenly azure bleeds
With whispers of snowy clouds floating
On the edge of prayers meeting needs
Revelations from verses that need quoting
Sunflowers abundant across the prairies
Brilliant colors creating soft feelings within
Where God comforts and rids of all worries
Breathing virtue that yearns for love to begin
Robins glide through the heavens above
Triggering views that sing with adoration
Enlightening the heart like a peace dove
Who shares her joy throughout the duration
Winds sing tunes on the notes of the breeze
Melancholy songs that design secret melodies
Seasons fire the heart with everything to please
Rare luxuries that are filled with sighs of specialties
Along the ridges grow dreams that glow fiercely
Capturing the soul’s longing for a sense of peace
Murmuring truths that haunt hearts so sincerely
With dancing thoughts on love that bring release
Gentle hope inspires insights into life’s poetry
Verses trapped inside the heart like a touch
Bringing joy that is not fleeting, but like creativity
Caresses the very soul earnestly, adoring such
