Timeless, the leaves
quiver in greeting to me
My muscles relax as
I sprawl in the cool green
grass, the breeze toying with
my summery locks
soothing my heart and
clearing my mind of worry...
The grove whispers to me in
a chorus of hushed tones
sharing its secrets with me
as I smile and share
mine silently back
Light waltzes rustle in
the branches and limbs
inspired by the
wind into
symphony
My blessed
aspen
grove
Author notes
My grandparent's property has an aspen grove in one corner. I love the silver-green leaves, fluttering back and forth like tons of little hands shaking. It almost sounds like whispery auplause. The sound is very soothing, and I like to lay in the center, and peer up between the leaves at the sky.
