small spotted lady
works all day in the garden
then flies away home
A place for poems and pics
This poem is a spinning globe
This poem is a raindrop on a leaf
This poem is a book
–
This poem spins the world we know
making us all a little dizzy
This poem defines each country
with colors that blur together
as it spins, creating a new world
This poem is a colorful globe
–
This poem is a raindrop that sits on
a leaf waiting for the sun to embrace it
to lift it into the sky, send it away
and let it fall again in field or forest
This poem is a patient raindrop
–
This poem is a book of words
trapped between covers until opened
by some lover who sets them free
carries them like a bouquet
and bestows them on friends and strangers
This poem is a bouquet of words
–
This poem is a globe of many colors
This poem is a traveling raindrop
This poem is a book of flowers

Boomerang Poem form challenge by Hannah
watching storms in wonder
flash performs with thunder

the Essence was created by Emily Romano and consists of two line of six syllables each
there is an internal rhyme and an ending rhyme
Even a gentle breeze will cause
me to stumble, starger down
this tilted, angled staircase
Cracks hamper my decent
and my instincts tell me to
stay awake, alert for the
spirits who cling to the
underside of these steps
waiting for me to go astray
Will they catch me, save me,
keep me from bruising my shins
and my ego or will they just
smile

I was excited to find three small, black swallowtail caterpillars on the dill in my garden last week. By Friday there was only one and on Saturday that one was gone too. The cycle of life, sigh.

swept away by feathered foe
nature provides fare
