The African Bush

Bushveld - June 13 2016-20160527_160533

Day breaks early
Softly in the veld
Another night survived
For those who did.

Day feeders open the eye
Night feeders head to ground
A hand over of sorts

Soaking natures silence
Wrapped in sunlight clear
Voices dapple through the trees

Leaves burnt orange and falling
Weave mulch carpets
Where prints may leave a track

Days spent in sentient splendour
Far from city noise
Allow absorption of air so still

Soul nurtured through the scene
Until night feeders break their cover
And bed becomes my ground

  1. Hi Rob

    I received your request to view my private site but I’m no longer writing the blog. I’ve not closed it entirely as I intend to stop back and read for enjoyment from time to time. I’m currently using a pen name and writing for a different audience now.

    Best in all
