Wishing You

Rating: 5.0


....................a different kind of day

'Why do we bother with the rest of the day, '
.....from 'Memory', a poem by Billy Collins

a warm oven
baking bread
................................................coffee beans
................................................freshly ground
butterflies
in the morning
................................................fireflies
................................................all the evening
a bobbing bottle
ocean blue
................................................bits of sand
................................................from a foreign land
a budded flower
opening soon
................................................glasses
................................................full of hope
a whispered secrets
touching Mars
................................................the softest feather
................................................from a baby’s pillow
a sleeping cat
a stream of dreams
................................................3 new buttons
................................................wine red

..........................slippered smiles
..............................gentle hugs
................a kiss as soft as the willows
.............a borrowed moon and perfume
...........................one last Waltz
.........a sleeping sun recalling your dreams
