Night Magic
~
Waking in the night I rise~not knowing why
tip toe through the house~peek outside
stunned~quickly opening the door~barefoot
looking up~finding magic in the velvet sky
a comet's tail~streaking for miles~narrow cloud
brilliantly lit inside~holding Luna captive in it's heart
brisk winds free her once again~serenely sailing on
she continues her journey~slipping out of sight

Quietly~nearly unnoticed
shy Labrador Violet unfurls
hidden among last year's fallen leaves
cozy under the Razzle Dazzle bush
her bright face peers up joyfully
lifting her face to the warm spring sun
she stretches~holding her head high
endearing in her sweet simplicity

Once again Persephone
rises from the dark
back into the light
bright shiny face glows
season's wheel turns
HAPPY SPRING EQUINOX

Nature's morning palette
robin egg blue ~morning skies
glowing chartreuse~young oak leaves
brilliant sulfur yellow~oak blossoms
cotton candy pink ~cherry plum
all aglow in sun's first rays

Following the scent
finding hidden treasure

The scholar ~deep in thought
text clutched tightly in his hands
above wisteria clusters sway playfully
moving gently in the morning breeze
tossing delicate scent ~casting shadows
upon his long somber face
~
Surely all these cheerful doings
could move even a man of stone
tickle the inner boy within gently
elicit a tender smile to welcome 
and breathe deeply~savoring
this fragrant Sunday morn
