Leaves in the Sunlight by Gale Jarmyn

 

Droplets of Joy

by Ivor Steven

The leaves
Azure and emerald 

Mother Nature’s 

Tear droplets of joy 

Daintily dangle 

Above sacred ground 

And faithfully 

Await baptism 

By cascading sunshine 

 

Thereafter 

The anointed leaves 

Eternally replenish 

Mother Nature’s  

Earthly goblet 

With liquid hues 

Of azure and emerald

    Well done Ivor. A lovely painting and you’ve captured it beautifully. My favourite lines…’daintily dangle above sacred ground’.
