New green brings a bright
touch to Monday’s rain-soaked scene
and chases the gray away.

Infrequent mowing
lets gold shine forth and purple
have its day in the sun.

After joining in
with other howling dogs on
DOGTV, Knox looked
at me as if to say, don’t
be so glum; it’s all in fun.

Sky, not wanting to
be outdone by Earth’s spring blooms,
accessorized with pink.

Sunny day, slow start –
let’s treasure this moment of
peaceful Spring pleasure
and leave our predictions of
dark clouds and hurry behind.

I remember myself,
as a kid, feeling bored and restless
when there was nothing to do.
Now, at seventy nine,
I feel grateful and content
when there’s nothing to do.

The seeds of knowing
lie within. Let’s attend to them
and watch them grow.

Sometimes I ache.
It’s part of being me.
Doesn’t everyone?
Sometimes I fear
that which I can not control.
Doesn’t everyone?
Sometimes my pain and fear
drive me to unwise actions.
Doesn’t everyone’s?
Sometimes I regret
the consequences of those acts.
Doesn’t everyone?
Sometimes I hope
I can be a better soul.
Doesn’t everyone?
Sometimes I pray
for a divine guiding hand.
Doesn’t everyone?
Sometimes I love.
Doesn’t everyone?
Doesn’t everyone?
The evergreen in
me delights in spring’s return
with its young and tender green.
