Imagination the Painter’s Brush

The ground is scattered with fallen pinecones
a design without a pattern intricately woven
each cone has its own representation
of a different unique stitch

each moment they take flight and hit the ground
they create a new music filled with
silent abstract notes and enhanced
by the deep greens of the forest floor

while in the background a tapestry
is sweeping, sloping in its rising
is a surreal undulation of hills
that surround the valley
laying in peaceful repose

a testament to Nature’s beauty
an artist’s canvas unsurpassed
which only the painter’s brush
can aspire to imagination
and will never be master

Imagine Pinecones on the Forest Floor
