Glorious light from the east
illuminates dewy shades of green and white,
Under an umbrella of maple and pine
the fragrance of lilies fills the cool air.
Creating a sweet melody
the crossbills perch on a faded birdhouse.
On this summer morning
pull up a chair and dream.
So many lovely images: I could smell the lilies and hear the birds. Nice work, as always!
ReplyDeleteyep I can just barely make out the flying saucer in the light. Nicely done. not really, but still a great photo.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful picture - and beautiful words!

ReplyDeleteStarr: I was hoping you would catch a glimpse of that flying saucer!
