Within Beauty's Rush

Missing image
Distant sound mid morning hush,
glistening water flows to rush.
Lost in thought paradise found,
splashes within my mind resound.

Inhale beauty nature gives,
peaceful heart where yesterday lives.
Picturesque falls fill my mind,
leave the hustle and bustle behind.

Come sit beside and feel the mist,
nature's beauty sweetly kissed.
Cares tossed aside we gaze upon,
as sounds of springtime drift beyond.

Hand in hand enjoy the wonder,
rushing water swirling under.
Sounds that sooth and mesmerize,
inhale this splendor before our eyes.

    The rhyme is always well done and moves with the feeling of not being forced. The picture beauty allow the reader to grasp the wonder painted in words. Spring drift to the swirl of rushing water.
    Clear and moving texture of the poem shares a sound aspect for full thrust of the work.
