Somewhere Picturesque

striking blue
a faint grey line
then white, too
then purple, divine
gold and green
intermingled
again, blue
thin, single

the landscape stretches
across my view
forever in either direction
I could run for a day or two
and not reach another section

fie;d, stretching
shining stream,
a stirring country
perfect, a dream
color leaps and bounds today
away and back
all over, parade

while still and quiet
unheard music plays
blown along through the field
a dry fragrance throughout the day
the music of living things
growth and praise
praise to the Creator in every way!

the solar lamp magnifies
edges of the mountains rise
not a cloud overhead flies
it is a feast for humble eyes
