the leaves have all been painted
into place this spring
the birds sing their happiness to nests
the best they bring
the life humans celebrate thrives
the less we sing

Spotlight On . . . xii (’19)
as time slips i sip the hours
suntime nonsense flower
dreamer amidst woody bowers
weekend woman springing out
feeling her breathy path by breeze
toward sun stance
hip swung nonchalance
among happiness in bluebells
———
i, not quite, of the bluebells
increasingly away with the flowers
giddy, sing-song, gone wrong
gossamer rhyme blossom
coming alive
not so much singer as song
not so much goer as gone
cowslip, daff
meadow sweet
buttercup
flowering at last
a rose, as if

i, not quite, of the bluebells

giddy, sing-song, gone wrong
gossamer rhyme blossom
coming alive
not so much singer as song

waiter upon bees
turning to be
cowslip, daff
meadow sweet
buttercup
flowering at last
a rose, as if
