Words

How can you paint a scene with words?

A night scene when the reflection of the moon on the river Makes a golden path from one side to the other? Nature’s scenes have sounds. A cricket symphony that lulls you to sleep punctuated With the baritone of a frog, And the call of a far-off coyote adds a note that No man-made instrument can create. How can you paint a scene with words?
