Song to a summer afternoon.Yellow rosesLike miracles of sunlight.Lemon pudding Stirred to soft perfection,Spooned into a deep green plate.Sprinkled with grated orange peel.
Yellow Roses
Three pansies
Like three little girls SistersBright sweet sisters Jaelyn, Josie and Yani.Two hide in behind the bold oneTwo wait for their chance to show Rosy dressesThey curtsy in time.
Sunset from the Porch
From the porch swing I watch night comeA drama of light and dark.All drama needs music.The music is a chorus of tree-frogsSweet chirping of birdsSongs of the mockingbirdLullaby of cicadasMusic that comforts souls Music that softens the pains and strife of day.Music to rest by.
