Mother Nature’s Fashion Show: a Georgia State Park Sonnet in Iambic Pentameter
a Georgia State Park is the place to go
when everything around you falls apart
as Mother Nature throws a fashion show
just pack your things and head out to a park
when everything around you causes stress
breathe deeply and choose self-care: go unwind
Miss Scenic View is zipping up her dress
she beckons you to leave the world behind
park runways boast resplendent beauty queens
who dance and sway to summer’s
breezy tunes
tall oaks and pines in gowns of forest green
will readjust your pulse to normal soon
when everything around you is fresh air
breathe deeply - feel the healing magic there!
Kim, look at you writing a book of poetry about parks and recreation! Lovely! You wrote a sonnet.
ReplyDeleteI love the "tall oaks and pines in gowns of forest green" on the runway at the beauty pageant. What a great image!
