Nature Sanctuary





S.O.L.  # 6 out of 31

Ahhh, the Nature Sanctuary


Beautiful blue sky

Sunshine shining

70 degree day



Babbling brook........
                                                                              MUTED by ying, yang, whiny, whine, whine. 

Bird chirps........
                                                                                          CHOKED  by  chitter ,chitter, chatter

Wandering Walk ....   
WAFFLED by excited energy racing.

Calm and quiet ....
RATTLED by rocks ricocheting off tree trunks.

Light breeze blowing......
                                                                             BLOCKED by sneakers squishing in the mud.

 Meandering path....   
                                                                               MUDDLED by exploring feet climbing high
      on the nearest hill.                                                     

Meditating moment......
                                                                             FLEETING and filled with mother's fear that                                                              he's going to fall.

But my heart is filled...
the moment I see big brother reach for little sister's hand
 to help her cross the creek 
and all is well! :)

    1. Thank you so much Mia. It definitely was contrasting ideas of a fun day at the Nature Sanctuary.

  4. You have so many things going on here that I really enjoy. I like the purposeful use of typeface and font to help create the contrasts. I also like your word choice for the verbs like "muted," "choked," "waffled," etc. as well as your alliteration, as in "babbling brook," "wandering walk," "calm and quiet," etc.
