Fields Of Green Velvet Poem by Valerie Dohren

Fields Of Green Velvet

Rating: 5.0


Lay me down gently in fields of green velvet
Resting beneath the blue gossamer sky
Where I may gaze upon clouds of white cotton
Shimmering dragonflies floating on by

Mingling there amongst red satin petals
Yellow and silver, with gold all around
Captured by nature’s soft breathtaking beauty
Gracing the heavens, adorning the ground

There shall I tarry in peaceful devotion
Breathing the fresh and sweet pine-scented air
Feeling the warmth of the sun cast around me
Free from all worry and heartache and care

Come, won’t you join me, to feel all this splendour
There in your mind where such fantasies dwell
Dance with me, sing with me, and then surrender
Each of your cares, and fall under my spell



Song version (Music by John Carter Brown) :

A faultless poem and concept, an offering to ponder and accept, peace and serenity painted perfectly.

Splendid in lyrical charm and expressive of love unbound.. It is a poem that can be one of the best 10 by you and so I am giving a clean 10 out of 10.

Well, well, well, Didn't know you were an Enchantress, as well. This poem-painting has fascinated me, it's beauty, description, pictorial magic thru words. I could even smell the pine- scented air, Delightfully travelled, not paying our fare. A Gem of a poem, thank you
