Slowly but surely little tadpoles are emerging!

whirligig washing line
purple pegs on parade
budding Bob blowing in the breeze
spring garden limes and greens
tilted table bows to the birds
solitary snail discarded
sparrows chirrup
regardless

(Budding Bob is our apple tree in the corner – so named by my son because you bob for apples!)

Nightingale (Photo credit: torugatoru)
A nightingale sings
a wistful melody.
The smell of cherry blossom
on a fresh spring tree.
The smell of lilac
will soon be here,
along with the swallows,
and the summer air.

How I lived,
loved, and
lost,
in a
day.
A crisp winter
walk. Breath.
November
skies so
fresh.
Suffocating summer
afternoons, spent
making love, in
your bedroom.
Passionate.
Autumn abandonment.
Love tossed aside.
Sad, bitter tears,
words said,
love dead.
Armchair reminiscence,
so long ago,
memories,
spring,
forth.
How I lived,
loved, and
lost,
in a
day.
