Like The First Morning

Apr1

As the sun slowly rises,

the sleeping world wakes,

wondering what the day will bring.

Carpe Diem

Mar31

The lawn is scattered

with tiny flowers seizing

their place in the sun

before the yearly mowing begins.

Obviously that owl

has not found the answer

to the question he keeps asking.

Whine And Dine

Mar29

Like any tavern,

the bird feeder has its regulars

and the occasional brawl.

Rumor has it that

the blooms on those Bradford Pears

are pieces of escaped clouds.

Mar27

For a few minutes

that tiny bird had the seeds 

to himself, then squirrels came.

Yearly Concession

Mar26

March slowly concedes

to Spring’s insistence on change.

It’s hard to always

be caught in the middle.

A Study In Contrasts

Mar25

Chasing butterflies,

 Murphy, our cat, sleeps

 while I lie awake 

counting sheep.

Take Heart

Mar24

Spring’s green message of

renewal reminds us gray

doesn’t have the final say.

Throughout The Night

Mar23

From high in the sky

the moon sends kisses of light,

making the pond glow.
