Poetry
Beautiful Day
By MyCatIsMyIdol
23 April 2008
A nice spring day but is there something sinister lurking?

My first shot at poetry.Laughing I've now sorted the stanzas to the way they should be. The text box does some funny things.

From beneath the ribbons of cloud,
rays of light glided down casting
brilliant showers of gold, bronze and brass. 

Silently…
 
 
The chorus of birds rang through the
soft air sweet from the daffodils
swaying gently to the melody. 

She stood below…
 
The silver branches of the tree
outstretched like a bird’s wings woven
in the leaves and the pure white blossoms.

A knife in her hand…

A cloak of emerald grass swept
down to a trickling stream as the
dragonflies skimmed down the water’s edge.

Splashes of vivid red on her clothes …

A rabbit bounded through the grass
-sunlight shining off its silk coat-
paused and twitched its ears so daintily.

“This was a romantic picnic!
Why did you have to ruin it
by squirting ketchup all over me?”
