THE ARTISTOur earth a canvas,
Gently brushed by Mother Nature,
With magic as she has,
Ends up more vivid and greener,
Than e'er before.
Looks so bleak and glum above,
'Tis but a dip of her brush,
That she applies with love,
To make things lush.
She swings it side to side,
To and fro,
As far as the landscape is wide,
She does go.
And having painted,
Like any good artist,
She lets it dry.

Absolutely beautifu. Only Mother Nature can make Mama Earth look so beautiful.

These photos are really beautiful! Stormy clouds just waiting to burst.
RYC: Love your little doodle ditty! I'll let you know more about the T. shirts a little later. Thanks so much for your interest, Doug.
Powerful looking storm photos. Your poetry does them justice.
Have a Merry Christmas, you and yours.
Incredible! I adore the last one the best!
No one can "best" Mother Nature and her magic brush!
Thank you Doug for a lovely start for my day!
