Another World

 A land of wind, water, rainbows, hills, trees, standing stones, and Mother Nature's beauty.
Isle of Mull, Scotland

Another World
1/21/10

Continuous rain days
blustery to gentle
with gray skies
glimpses of sun
on setting horizon
throwing occasional rainbow
paints different picture,
gives me rest
from hurried routine,
add no electricity
and rhythms shift
as darkness descends
bringing long nights
only 'torches' interrupt,
where sleeping early
bedded until dawn
makes perfect sense,
especially without work
that motivates energy
countering natural influences,
Nature's singing now
when water runs
winter winds gust
trees sway, dance
upon saturated ground,
Her song cleanses
slows outward creation
birthing human beings
into another world.
