blue fields of wild indigo

A Poem by Marie Harrison
"

a nature write about enjoying spring before winter comes

"
blue fields of wild indigo
 
chirping red robins
bobbing house wrens
 
perched high 
sing a soft lullabye
 
as the black mother hen
fluffs her fresh nest of twigs 
to lay her speckled eggs
 
the first leg of lady spring is here
her sweetest scent is floating in the air
with the buzzing bumble bees
 
the white aura of this virgin beauty
flows like a river
in a brisk breeze through our hair
 
not long before she disappears 
and the first tender sprouts of
july rye will appear
 
come on
lets run through
the blue fields of wild indigo
where the quarterhorses roam
 
we'll play with the 
frisky spotted fawn until sundown
 
while we're young and free
lets live like gods until dawn
 
sowing our oats in the sun's glory
until we need our coats of down
on a dead of winter morning

The uplifting emotion flows with brilliance! Your ink pulls me into the scene and let's me revel in the youthful vibrancy and playful scenery that you have painted.

While we are young... life is indeed a blessing and we do indeed need to let ourselves live it rather than just exist through it.

Great work!
