The trees cast shadows
across the deserted scene
And a breeze stirred
in the cool air
which pervaded a benign dominion
Beneath vast boughs
that arched over an idyll
Where fields of emerald green
carpeted the realm
It ruffled the leaves
that fluttered in the pale light
of a tranquil eventide
And stirred the waters
which sparkled upon a placid lake
As it exulted in the stillness
amid a deserted scape
Bathed in the lambency of a sublime dusk
