Late Diners

Are they late risers,

those birds who come

to the feeder well past noon,

or are they simply passersby

grabbing a bite on the fly?

A Story Untold

Someone must have loved

this place, so full of blooming

daffodils, but now

the house, long vacant, crumbles

and no one’s around to care.

The Play Of Light

The play of light on

 flowers, lawn, shrubs, and trees

intensifies life’s beauty, 

creates magic,

grounds us in natural joy.

Spring Homecoming

Forsythia spreads 

its golden branches wide

in a silent welcoming. 

Head bowed, the Weeping Willow

sheds glistening tears

of pure, green joy.

Spring enters with a sunny smile,

warmly touching all she meets.

Be Careful What You Sing For

“Rain, rain, go away,”

I sang and it did, but what

came was snow, not sun.

I guess I should have been more

specific with my lyrics.
