Strawberry Dawn

Strawberry Dawn               by Sami Khalil

It was the morning of momentous waves

Frenzied thoughts gathered in the scented hours

From a radiant sky to vigilant graves

I swung on drowsy swings and high towers.

 

Same old familiar ‘hikers’ trekked the slopes

Denying the escapes of varied joys

Seas roaring and mountains tumbling of hopes

Chasing golden sunbeams and roving ploys.

 

I labored in my garden for lone blooms

Migrating away from guilty parties

Speaking essential peace, sans of more dooms

Benign humdrums, touching hearts at ease.

 

It was the morning of strawberry dawn

Eager love seemed a resplendent icon.

Your imagery is now on par with Monet. Great writing Sami.

[Sami Khalil]

OMG! An honor indeed. I love his works. You are so kind sir. Thank you kindly for all.

Great write! I see in my perspective of what is strawberry,
the war, the fight, and the embodiment of the dead in the strawberry field.
I love the painting that goes with it. Art is magnificent.
The beauty of the world enhancement: Art.

I'm sure it will be sweet and tasty. The hills and hollers are alive with spring and romance. Add a Hungarian melody and voila.
