By The River Midst The Trees

A Poem about the beauty of Nornalup in south Western Australia

By the river, midst the trees

 

I sit here making movie shows

Of a gap between two trees

As the sun fills them with painted glow

To give them mystery

Sparkling like a million stars

The river flows so peaceful

And trees be painted every shade

As they grow so very tall.

 

Soft music, in the background, plays

Relaxed it be my fashion

As I watch trees give off a show

To stir my heart with passion

The sparkling river gives my eyes

A show to end all shows

Reflecting all the suns bright rays

To make my being glow.

 

Such harmony, and peace abounds

In this haven on the shores

Of the coloured, Frankland river

That place that I adore

All who come to visit, here

Will take home memories

Of the beauty here in Nornalup

By the river, midst the trees
