Moral High Ground

entry picture

I feel serene, I feel sure,

I feel I couldn't ask for more

and from this most exalted place

I can see a crisp landscape

where everything seems good and pure

and nowhere now is in the shade

but a glorious light drenches every glade

and each blade of grass stands proud and true.

I look down as the naked earth's revealed

and a celebration song pours from the sky

lifting dancing spirits high.

On re-reading after a few days I totally take your point and may well re-visit. Thank you for your courage in feeding back, it is genuinely appreciated.

Hello Alison, I've kept coming back to this and keep waiting for some other feedback to see if they agree with my thoughts. No luck so here goes.
I found occasional rhyming a bit hard to get my teeth around (sure more, shade glade etc) when other lines didn't. Your feelings of lightheadedness balance nicely with the lofty subject matter too.It's clever work. I imagine the photo is preciously relevant but I think it takes away from the writing. Keep it going Alison.
