The black cherry tree is in its element. Its continuous fine blossom drizzle blankets the giant hosta, and everything else that lives in that space. On this breezy day the drizzle shifts to blossom filled gusts on occasion. Hurling the scent wherever it will go. It wafts throughout the garden, mingling with the scent of the lilacs. I close my eyes, breathe deep and listen to the songs of the wind in trees.
a breezy spring day
marked by fierce winds in trees –
a rhythmic tango

to summer days spent
gazing at full bellied sails –
absent, need for pails

the garden
now fully clothed
offered the first scent of lilacs today
spring has come to stay.

the soft coo of a dove

Worrisome, unsettling times
lead me to wallow.
Sometimes in fear
at other times,
in the simple joys of my mortality.
I search out small
gasp worthy moments,
holding them close.
This sunset, a diverse gathering,
seagulls, pigeons, crows,
sparrows and humans – and
no misbehaving

melting into your kiss –
a recurring memory I hang onto
to keep me sane
to say goodbye
to move on
