Inspired by Sadje’s What do you see #127
this gift
like you, beautiful
is so precious
this offering
like you, cut
won’t last long
this bounty
like you, overflowing
touches our hearts eternally
*NOTE – Anyone who recognizes the song below, you’re dating yourself. 😉
Here’s one for the younger crowd. lol
The Wedding Dress
fuzzy empty clouds
dandelion skeletons
of half-blown wishes
and breezes blow
grey flowers sway underfoot
cow parsley shadows
trickling storm streams
carry specks of stolen light
into sunless earth
~~
soft leaves are bouncing
stems sway with flutters of green
swollen raindrops fall
~~
dipolar sunshine
lane lies clothed in lace shadows
footsteps of light and shade
~~
sea thistle towers
bees bumble through barbed flowers
wearing pollen shoes
~~~
