Four Poems Written Past My Bedtime


Hopscotch


Spring

April

Second wind

Nala, bouncing

Deer ate the tulips

Morning walk by the beach

Reading a book on the porch

Sunshine everywhere blinding me

Daffodils, brown thrasher, buttercups

Sturdy fawn looks at me through the window

Gentle stars, mild breeze soft on my cheek

Gardeners  waking steadily

Interesting smells in the air

Big beautiful robin

Breathe the breath of life

Rocks, bricks, and sand

Rise again

Lovely

Joy 




Split Pea Soup

I made split pea soup
With the leftover ham broth.
It was too salty.



Blueberry Pancakes

Out of blueberries.
Ginger, cardamom, allspice
For pancakes instead.



Painting the Beach

I painted the beach
Wrong, because it was from my
Imagination.
