It's morning again...
Carol Law Conklin's Batik Work |
The dark hills set a perfect contrast -
for the sun to rise and rays be
cast.
Trees wake up in envy of hills -
for sun caresses it before the
green frills.
Wind carries silence of dawn,
flowing blue hums a country
song.
Slowly the sky steal colors of
sun,
lends it to river like they are
just one!
Naughty water tickles grasses on
its way,
that fall a drenched sleep as they
shy away.
Elements of nature have started
the day,
Let’s too wake up and join to
say –
Happy to have received yet
another one,
Forces be with us to have good
deeds done!
My submission for Artistic Interpretations with Margaret - Carol Law Conklin Batik Artist at Imaginary garden with real toads
Margaret wants us to write an original poem or greatly re-vise an old poem for this prompt tagging the wonderful work of Carol Law Conklin, a batik artist. Her beautiful art pieces have been showcased on her website "Amity Farm Batik" .
Luv the rhythm of this poem, its as sensuous as the flow of the batik wax of the image. great team up
