In these trivial pursuits
Life seems clear, yet night refutes
Walking streamside rustles pleasant
Blown contentment
Cooler, leaving fine refreshment
Scurried, shallows quiet remnant
Polliwogs swim tails to heads
Flipping ripples deep
Flowers bow in promised sleep
Closing timid petals until dawn’s sweet keep
Jealous of the water’s serene rest
Sleeping tight
Impressionists dream, by midnight
Dropping degrees on a pale twilight
Star marks on velvet in glitter pictures
Snapshots coriander
But for the stream, this soft meander
Chirps of crickets, sharp then blander
Cool moist breezes, skim in teases
Rain

TD...I sure would like to be on that walk with you, and was through your words.  Still, I want to be there, real!

TD,

Your images are always so fresh and clear.  I am learning so much from you.  Good imagery is something I am working on in my own writing now.

Excellent!

Patricia
