Neighbor
And I had a
Delightful walk today
Inspite of all the troubling news
We saw
Colorful flowers blooming and
Cheerful sidewalk art
On display in the
Sunshine
Butterfly Cinquain

At a time when
Gatherings are discouraged
Sparrows meet together
Feasting on food provided
By their Father in heaven
Tanka
Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? Matthew 6:26
(Seeing these birds in the parking lot at my local grocery was a great reminder that God will provide during these unstable times and like the birds I should not worry about what I will eat or drink.)

Walking thru my day
Avoiding worry puddles
Watching where I walk
Stepping over the pitfalls
Of the fear induced cracks
Tanka

First day of Spring
Sun is shining bright
Daffodils
Sashaying
To the music of songbirds
In the gentle breeze
Shadorma
Blessings to all my family, friends and followers!
I hope you are all are experiencing a delightful First Day of Spring wherever you are at this time.
I do pray for those in quarantine and lockdown that they can still look outside and see the beauty of nature and for those who are shut in with illnesses at this time I pray for your speedy recovery as well.

Yellow stars
Scattered about
Nod hello
Inviting
Me to stop and watch them dance
Each day as I pass by
Shadorma

Choosing to focus
On the daffodils dancing
Instead of the News

“Long time no see!
My fair weather friend!
Make yourself welcome,
Winter’s at it’s end.”
Syllabic Verse
(Me talking to the Robin I saw in my yard this morning! 😃Such a welcome sighting!))

Some sounds delight
Some sounds are soothing
Birdsong awakens
Haiku
I was thinking about sounds this evening and how they affect our lives. Some annoy, interrupt, cause alarm or tears.
Others sooth, delight, cheer or bring laughter.
I wonder how many of us are conscious of the sounds we emit each day and how they might affect others around us.
Something to think about…

“Coming soon” the signs say
Bits of color speak loud and clear
As I walk the dreary way
Coming soon” the signs say
Birds sing of a brighter day
Spring color will soon be here
“Coming soon” the signs say
Bits of color speak loud and clear
Triolet
