Those yellow pansies

aren’t deterred by weather. No

matter what, they shine.

A flash of sun on

gray winter morning brings an

answering smile.

Home alone – just me,

a cat and two dogs – a rare

and restful respite.

Gold lined clouds at start

of day. Is it an omen

or a golden tease?

In the heat this snake

had the best solution – shed

unneeded layers.

The sun fell in love

with itself and a pink blush

spread across the pond.

                                                                                                       JDG

If we awakened,

would we see the same world just

with different eyes?

Sense of contentment –

the smell of freshly mown grass

on a summer day

                                                                                    JDG

After April rain

a sudden outburst of green –

Spring’s hallelujah
