Solitude

Early morning steams rises
upon a lake of elegance
A brisk winter morn
Emulating natures gift to man
basking in delight
A benevolent sight indeed
Nestled anonymously
Heightening senses, transcendental

    Myst, I can surely see why this won gold. I feel so serene just looking at the image. Your words soothe the mind so delicately. This scene, I HAVE seen in Steamboat CO. Hot springs, got in, no one in sight. A poet's delight!You captured the solitude so well. Early dawn, a nature lover's delight! Congratulations!

    Ahhh... This is serene. It is picturesque as well. No need for the photographic image, you shot the picture with the lens of your pen. Beautiful!

    I feel your inspiration from this scenic shot.

    Congratulations on a well earned Gold!

    Much Love & Respect ♥

    Excellent job, this imagery brings us to the lake for sure. I loved the brisk winter morning, because, to me, that wording seems so accurate.

    Stunning & well defined piece! Good luck to you! Ryan
