a rose retaining its grip
upon summer’s dream
Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
the newest of nights
moon rises above the trees
fresh ink upon my page
This came to me as I was winding down for bed last night.
I hope each of you has a wonderful week.
with forests ablaze
reddened skies through tall firs
the birds go silent
at the day’s ending
sunlight fades into the sea
gentle grace of night
with dusk descending
and gently fading sunlight
flowers get their fill
with my morning tea
the gentlest of breezes
sunlight through the clouds
I love calm mornings. Today, Seattle’s weather seems to be pivoting from rain to partially cloudy. Blue skies punctuated with white clouds. Summer’s heat abated, whether temporarily or for the rest of the year is uncertain, but I’ll take the respite.
after the rainfall
sunlight moves from behind clouds
summer reaches far
grace consumes the night
within this silent darkness
healing commences
in the early morn
long before the birds arise
listening for grace
