various shades of verdancy;
bright yellow green to deepest pines
& a thousand tones in between.

Grand. Calming. More - (pretty please) .
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.
A great poem from the beginning and throughout! ! The beautiful landscape and then tying it all together to the Spirit.
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.
Vivid Hugh, very vivid. Another excellent piece that carries the reader along grandly.
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!)
And I'm watching it all with you, Hugh. Your poem is my window to this amazing scene of natural beauty. Love, Gina.
Hugh, you rock! Another delicious treat stuffed with humanity. Hugs Anna xxx
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
That of course, should have read gently not gentlly.
