Childhood Joy – A Cherita

brooding clouds

finally spill their brew
of large, plopping raindrops.

on her daily walk, pace unchanged –
rediscovering her childhood joy
of walking in the rain

Expectations – A cherita

deep in the tangles

of the honeysuckle
and grape vines

a sparrow
ferries twigs and sticks,
nurturing expectations

Nectar Drunk – A Cherita

a day very well spent

the rose garden is drenched
in the perfume of the blooms

I am one with the birds,
bees and butterflies
in a nectar drunk funk

FOTD – June 11, 2019 – Peonies

Spring Rain

 

(I took this photo in my garden yesterday. Can’t wait for these peonies to open up:) The poor thing was in a deep bow this morning. Probably drunk on raindrops.)

 

birds have gone silent

 

they too are caught up

in the melody of the rain

 

nature walk interrupted

as may flowers and young leaves

dance in spring rain

A Longing

a longing

for summer days
in the garden

watching fireflies
as twilight fades
into night

Dusk – Cherita

at dusk

through the rhythm
of raindrops

three rounds
of twittering –
night prayers

In The Garden

in the garden

bees tinker
in and out of blooms

here and there
a petal tumbles,
gone adrift
