October Afternoon

10/7/2015

It is in the change of seasons that the magic of Nature is realized. With a new setting and canvas of creativity, the mind is filled with radiant purpose.

October Afternoon

I behold a thousand bulbs of ravenous paparazzi

Illuminating the body of a lake gilded in Autumn

Before the sun elegantly bows, relents, and descends

Into her timeless sentence of nightly obscurity—

From the highest mountain in the canvass of the sky

Nature’s reflection dances on the path of brilliant rays

Across the rippled surface kissed by breeze-tossed peaks;

Ethereal images of celestial bodies echoed from above

Hastily sail in liquid grace beneath Earth’s heavens.

~Danielle Grace
