a refuge in the sunflower –
hints of normalcy

For Cees Flower of the day, FOTD
lay me down to heal
till this crippling gray stills –
a regard for spring
sparks first tweet from window sills
no more will this sting endure

raindrops on tin roof
is my calm within a storm
a soothing rhythm
ceases to calm in this storm –
wayward, unsettling times

this uproar
refuses to be hemmed in
nothing is even

There was harmony in the park this morning. No swooping seagulls. No squirrel on the run with snarky birds in hot pursuit. There was no huge butterfly skewered in the beak of a tiny bird. Everyone was getting along!
Imagine that!!
aspirations
collide with reality –
contentious restart

this cloud lurking overhead
has claimed me
it snuggles in
displacing the thread of hope
I’ve been holding fast to
it flits in the breeze of the blues
swishing through my fingers
at every grasp
I force myself into the garden
it looks thirsty
I turn on the garden hose
and there through the fine sprays
a rainbow

I’m grateful for life and breath
as I greet each new day
I know it wasn’t promised

in a gentle breeze –
