Literature Text

Quiet tranquility exhales in the deep
In sweet blossoms we lay and sleep
Forever my eyes could reprise
If forever yours I could keep

And the rolling hills are silent lies
Set aside by peaceful cries
Broken the beautiful days
Of Winter's final sighs

In soundless golden rays
Do I sit and count the ways
How Spring my life renews
And for your time always pays

Eternally in deafened hues
Your golden hair caresses my views
And endlessly you sit and weep
For early Spring's morning dews
Something I wrote yesterday. August is the most beautiful month in South Africa



Note: I was informed of the title being the same as that of the Counting Crows album, but this is purely coincidental, and that has no bearing on this work.

PS: Llama badge to the first person who notes which famous poet/poem I stole my structure from :)

I read it twice. It has a good feel to it and the straight to the point lines convey beauty in their simplicity making it that much more effective. Ok three times.
