Virtues To Vices
Rainbows painted in the sky
White daffodils singing in the rain
Drops of dew glistening in the morning sun
Clear desert pools of cold spring water
Red plump strawberries nestled in green beds
Summer mountain meadows of grasses and blooming flowers
Golden stands of Aspen glowing in the setting sun
Scented pines and carpets of needles baring naked warmth
Autumn leaves of red yellow and brown fluttering in the waning sun
Thunder and lightening flashing banners across the sky
Flooding rains and hurricanes calling an end to summer
Silent snowflakes underneath dark fluffy clouds
Winters brown weeds standing tall and lean
Black mud oozing through naked feet
Dirty snow melting in the city streets
Dead stumps rotting in the ground
Marsh gas wafting up between your toes
Mosquitoes swarming after your eyes and nose
Clouds of flies feasting on earthly remains
