Sign Of Hope


Dark green scrub oak trees
Dot the rolling foothills,
In a chenile blanket
of textures and colors!.

Bordered in ribbons
Of blossoms, the
Winding roads create
Floral rainbows that

Run through pastures
Abundant with newborn
Calves, lambs; foals!.
A flourishing contrast

To snaggle toothed
Fences, delapidated lattice barns,
Toppled trees and debris
Left by winter storms!.

God’s nature rebounds in
The eternal sign of hope;
Fresh new life !. !. !.
And the beauty of Spring!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

it has been a while since i read any of your work and i was pleasantly reminded of the inspiring and lyrical response they evoke in me- they make me feel like everything will be okay!. thanks my friend!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I am very impressed!. This is a good old fashioned, well constructed poem with lots of visual imagery - I especially like the first verse and the 'snaggle toothed' verse!. Your use of enjambment ensures that the poem flows on uninterruptedly until you reach Left by winter storms!. The pause then emphasises the message in the last verse!. A poem such as this takes a lot of work to pull off, and you have done it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
