Once again
I find myself standing
Looking in to admire
Her inner beauty
Illuminating everything
That’s classically hidden
Behind a sturdy exterior
Made of steel
I begin to reflect
On polished effects
Side-by-side, sinking
Counter-depth
As temperatures rise
She remains cool
As a cucumber inside
Protecting my food
…and then there’s mine ❤️ Full of everyday condiments you gotta have.
You’re the sun and moon
That’s why they’re both shining
For me at high noon
Another day rolls
In to pick up where we stopped
Sorting thru life’s rocks
Moving pebbles and boulders
To find the meaningful gems
Contributing to a multi million dollar event
Without any regrets as the line up represents
“The Weekend” living smug and content
I’ve resigned from pitching, but I’ll spy tents
A little less frequent, but up and coming quick
As the fans predict with their supportive picks
Over 9 days nearly a billion dollars is made in the desert it’s truly amazing and well orchestrated : LA Times 2016 stats
Violent winds thrash
Autumn colors stripped, barren
Leaves scurried away
Playful pups give chase and taste
With confused look on their face
I look and listen
For all that I’ve been missing
In your attentions
That speaks so eloquently
and comforts soft parts of me
* 2016 holiday bouquet
Overnight Morning Glory seeds sprout with life
Pretty Daylilies* bloom in an array of colors yearly
Despite what you may think purple Pansy’s aren’t weak
Sunny Marigolds offer a safe bet for your money
Annual Impatiens grow quickly and require no manuals
Hearty Sunflowers stoop over to weep at the loss of heat
Perennials are sustainably preferred over Biennials
– Inspired by flower power among other things, and I’m super excited about volunteering to work on a Rose Parade float tomorrow.
