Earthscape
Poem by Steven Jacobson

August 8, 2013

blue veil littered and layered with
white billowy puffs of moments and
motion. blossoming firs arching
skyward, toward the sun and stars.
landscape launches and defines
strength and beauty while melding
with the bold horizon. dwellings
mottle the hillside as seen from
the eye of an eagle soaring high
overhead and the vast bodies of
water glisten like an emerald dancing
before the sun and the hills silhouettes
the valleys like a stilled motion picture
frame by frame drawn across the scenery.
the craggy canyon bounces and jumbles
a rainbow of colors like a revolving
prism with the shimmering sun light
casting a picture of delight.
