The window presents a view:
various shades of verdancy;
bright yellow green to deepest pines
& a thousand tones in between.

A pleasantly picturesque piece that tranquillises the reader (well it did for me) as it gentlly unfolds. And what a apropos last line. You pen these portraitures just as adroitly as your intellectually stimulating and mystical poems. Stellar work as per usual from you, Hugh.

I thought tonight I would check to see if you had any new submissions, and golly Hugh, I landed on another treasure of yours. This poem offered me as a reader so many beautiful visuals. I love the way you played with your creativity and portrayed an exraordinary view that was more than a glimpse, it was an experience. This one surly will be enjoyed by many. Unique work Hugh. Thanks for sharing.

Nice view Hugh, there is nothing like a good storm to clear the air. 10 from flowing as the wind blows, Tai

What a meaningful, potent ending to this excellent poem! I'm rather envious of those closing lines, as well as: '... into the sheltering depths of an ancient oak whose lichen covered bark is wintry white & whose twisting branches are bearded with spanish moss.' and i particularly heard the sound upon the roof, thanks to your vivid use of description. one of your finest offerings, Hugh (which is saying a lot since there are so many!)

Excellent from start to finish. I forget how many shades of green there are sometimes, and that animal sixth sense that makes them seek refuge, while some of us storm- chase. Give your window cleaner a big tip, this christmas.Danny
