Scenery Medley contrasts
Marshes and meadows
Sunshine and shadows
Gentle ripples on the calm river
Foaming rapids in white water
The jungle echoes in the semi-darkness
while daylight creepy-crawlies clear the mess.
Peasants toiling and pheasants scratching
as I spy a cricket somersaulting
The cactus the desert's prickly femme-fatale
elsewhere a lone leaf floats in the canal
Prairie dogs go popping
while hares go hopping
and ladies go shopping
Swans have formed a fine V-line
The flora too is divine
as bees nosedive in bee-line.
Siesta seizes birdlovers too
Thus they miss out on the hoopoe's song
For the hoopoe, it does not sing on cue
since a bird may sing anytime to woo.
What a medley eh of contrasting scenery
Evening twilight and dawning greenery
Ah, wherever you go nature's so panoramic
While we make and take pictures
God actually made what's so picturesque!

Hi there..
Fast paced poem painting different sides of nature.
Keep writing! ???
Fast paced eh, thanx a bunch for the comment!
Yes, enjoyed it a lot.
Very good ??? plenty of imagery bursting with colourful "scenery" you painted a pretty picture in my head...???
Thanx soo much for your comment. Glad to paint in words.
A beautifully descriptive piece that uses balanced pacing to propel it along-I adore anything that can bring a mental image immediately to mind and this hits the bill!! Well done, nice work enjoyed the read.

Warmest thanx for your review, glad to create pictures in others mind what I saw in real life scenery.
"The cactus the desert's prickly femme-fatale" ... Great line; I liked the consonance of "c" sounds and alliteration ("femme-fatale") ...
What I enjoyed most about this piece was the "machine-gun-like" staccato burst of words. A rat-ta-tat-tat beat cascading down the page in rapid-fire.
Great work!

Oh well I think it's being read in a hurry, it could be read slowly when we have the time lol. Machine gun gah, I'm too soft and gentle for that term.
thanx so much for your comment.
I'm a very gentle person too, S.zaynab.kamoonpury . But I used an M16 while enlisted in the Marine Corps, heh-heh.
Anyhow, you're more than welcome.

Hi Sz,
Mother Nature's creatures play
From sunrise till the end of day
She orchestrates this symphony
If left alone, so lovely be
.
But Mankind now attacks her trees
His products kill her precious bees
Her purest waters now pollute
For Mankind's greed is resolute
Peace and Love,
