Inspired by yesterday's weather, not finished until this morning.

Choice

bee flits
wasp dives
birds perch
gnats thrive
summer’s taken
a swipe of air
and filtered in
sweet sunshine there
the rocking of the feeder
frees
my thoughts to flutter
in the breeze
would summer choose
to come anew
before the autumn
winds are through?
a horse fly
sails past window pane
sorely confused
from lack of rain
but I shall loll
and ponder well
this lovely time
of autumn’s spell
put in a pause
and soothing voice
and weave the day
a lovely choice

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

VAS,
such a perfect work
about my favorite time
of year (right above Spring).
You are so talented. Thanks so much
for sharing your work.
Love to all,

Peaceful piece

Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
