Analysis of A Quite Moment



Just a whisper of the wind in the cool air,
While walking the country side so fair.
As winds blew leaves of silver and gold,
The old trees cracked,standing so bright and bold.
I came to a pond, all clear and blue,
Swans swimming, near water lillies through.
As I sit close to the water with fresh air all around,
The calmness, was still,not even a sound.

I looked at my reflection,floating there,
With sunlight, glowing around my face and hair.
As water flowing over rocks hidden in the sand,
I felt the cool, as water rolled over my hand.
The country so green,flowers blooming astray,
The contentment feeling, overwhemed, as I walked away
