Today is grey
from the inside out.
Overcast,
as the weatherman would say.
But on the bright side...
grey makes a lovely background
for bright yellow marigolds,
red impatiens, puple petunias,
and pink roses.

Such a beautiful thought, so well rendered here, dear Ida! You have seen the bright side of the grey day: life artists succeed in doing so.

Love,

You take the dreary out of these days,
and make a very special bouquet with your words.

I enjoy reading you so much, your poetry is
a pure delight and always so refreshing.
