Carole Cookie Arnold - China Clouds

Picturesque sky sun-soaked fields
Fragile china clouds protect and shield
Flaxen yellow sunflower seeds yield
Nourishing rainstorms a tempest wields

Sugarcane stalks sweeten the air
Peppermint herbs grow without care
Rustic red barn, cattle and horses share
Flower filled trellis adds colorful flare

The sun sets with a harvest moon in place
Buckboard filled hayride grab a space
Spooky stories by tales from the crypt
Made this day of fun worth the trip

A tapestry of beautiful fabric cut for me
This vision of beauty will always be
Sweet memories of the past take flight
Fireflies and jasmine flavor the night

This was the night of my first kiss
Hay loft with Billy a taste of bliss
Memories I will treasure all my days
Every time upon a harvest moon I gaze.
