Magic River in the Glen

Missing image
I shall remember evermore,
my journey to Aviemore.
Scottish beauty to adore;
steeped in fantasy and lore.

I ventured to Glen Feshie where
River Feshie's flowing there.
I cannot help but stop to stare
at so much beauty everywhere.

Cairngorms Granite separate;
to let the river navigate.
It cannot help but demonstrate
its Scottish beauty, so sedate.

I hear the ripple of the falls
hypnotically, I am enthralled
to hear it's tranquil, subtle call,
freely shared to one and all.

I'm filled with so much inspiration
as I trek the Conifer Plantation.
I close my eyes in meditation
to the magic of its presentation.

My inspiration, so demands
I take the paintbrush in my hand.
Portray the beauty of this land.
My artistry at its command.
