The winds flowing through the field of flowers,

brushing upon their cream petals and pulling at their thin stems.

A towering tree sits behind,

offering a shady spot for any weary traveler.

A monument of an older time still stands proud on its foundation.

A small flight of stairs allows entrance into this past.

Two pillars hold strong at their remaining roots.

The sunset beams a radiant amber,

leaving harsh shadows to follow anything in its view.

A curious horse strides into this forgotten rest stop,

laying down to be its last inhabitant.

I'm currently a senior in high school. This poem tells about a calm place where time has been brutal but mother nature has healed the wounds. It would be a calming place to take a nap or to read a book.
