‘Picture this;’

The sun stretches out it’s golden rays,
The beginning of a brand new day,
Daffodils unfurl and bloom,
While blue birds sing their morning tune,

Smell the freshly cut green grass,
Nestled in the trees another egg hatched,
To the whir of the neighbour’s mower,
Bees hum an octave higher,

This a new year means a new mindset,
It gives you that spring in your step,
Butterflies flying all around me,
Remind that this world has so much beauty,

Candy floss clouds across a canvas of blue,
Cobblestone pathways out of city view,
Houses in trees and pools for a paddle,
Horses in fields make me want to get in the saddle,

Can feel warmth on my face but I’m still in my coat,
When something catches my eye I make a quick note,
All four of the seasons each hold a great treasure,
If you are observant it’s more than the weather,

I’ve stepped straight into a painting,
Flowers growing – all winter waiting,
Accessorised with daisy chains,
I wave to the passengers on steam trains,

On my travels too – I’m on a journey,
I hold the pen and this is my story,
At one with nature – I feel alive,
New beginnings are where creativity thrives,

And when I put pen to paper,
These things around me I will savour,
Deeply rich in inspiration,
My words now leave their station…

Lennon
