Faint fluttering flicker
Among springtime’s treasures
Seeking sustenance
Among garden beauties
Aroused from winter’s sleep

Today
I live in a dictionary
With words as house mates
We’re building
Together

It alphabetically speaks

Spring Senses
Waking to the sound
Of a dove’s soft cooing,
My sleepy eyes delight
At sunshine, and the morning
Sounds of baby birds.
Taste awakening anew,
I touch life boldly
Smelling it’s fragrant winds that
Promise new life again.

Raconteur
The quill speaks
Of days long ago.
In quivering
Quotations
It tells of quotidian
Events radiantly.

Imagination
In fairytail fantasies
Unicorns pink and blue
Dance with red butterflies
In a field of yellow roses

“The Starry Night”
Down below
We dont really know
What swirls above
And dwells thereof
In that starry night
That lies beyond our sight
Among the clouds of white
Floating in a sea of blue
Are things hidden from our view
We can dream and contemplate
Research, study and debate
Yet we’ll not truly know my friend
Until our life reaches its earthly end
