Indigo Buntings in brilliant blue feathers

As I wander on a Summer morning I hear the wind sing along...

Curtains of Sunlight in ribbons of lavender and blue   

bring thoughts of awakening to a new adventure... 

Wild flowers dance over Meadows where Cowslips grew... 

I can imagine the Swans on the Lake preening their feathers... 

Butterflies are drawn to Violets in the early morning dew... 

Woodpeckers  are knocking on trees as the breeze sings 

a Gospel song sweet and low... I will follow you 

wherever you may go... over Valley's and Hills 

Til Heaven becomes a Stream of Lullabies...

Good morning Pat,
The zillions little birds that grace our very large gardens, woke me up along with the roosters this morning...And, the birds are still going strong as I sit here in our office/art room to work on our computer.
We have so many beautiful flowers blooming.. Just planted 27 lavender plants last week...well, not me..the gardener...oh yes and we planted a lime tree..We now have 5 orange trees and various types, 2 avocado trees and an amazing old lemon tree... Almost forgot a that we also have two fig trees a dark one and a light one..Plus of course the new lime tree...
I am in paradise....
I love these special lines of yours...

Good morning Lisa… I have planted a Fig tree… we shall see. I remember eating fresh Figs from a tree about thirty years ago.. so delicious. This Spring I have been eating a lot of Naval 🍊 Oranges and Roger eats a lot of 🍋 Lemons. Most Citrous fruit may come from Florida. Aging brings a Lust for Fruits.. even Mangoes. My mind dreams of Tangoes… sensual thoughts never die… they just become more frisky. Yesterday Roger’s niece Jennifer and her two grown children Olivia and Ryan spent Sunday with us… we visited Chatham Gardens with flowers and Garden Statues and a lovely Mansion from the 1800’s. It was a Perfect warm sunny day. There was a small Vineyard with gorgeous Grapes maturing on many Vines. We had dinner at Cracker Barrel. The young people are so fresh and Beautiful and somehow Roger and myself were comfortable like Wisteria trees in the Wind with a Fragrance of yesterday. Your Review has started my day with Sunshine at almost Seven am in Fredericksburg, Virginia by the Rappahannock River. softly, with ❤️ love, Pat

Just a quick hello about your fig tree
You probably already know this
But you must have two a male and a female to produce fruit💕💕

[Patricia Wedel]

Thank you Lisa… I did not know that… perhaps that is why Adam wore a Fig Leaf because he was Shy. Now I will be searching for genders of Fig plants… my very astute Friend. Lovely to share Garden Lore. softly, Pat

[Patricia Wedel]

dear Pete… it is true… the Birds are in their own World.. they seem to observe us from afar and wonder why we live in Cages. Thanks for reading my poems of Nature where where Passion rests. gently, Pat

Sometimes the wind actually does sing..along with the birds, it's a virtual symphony... Love your imaginations of the swans preening....and all the wildflowers at their very best, dancing over meadows...this is a lullaby of nature indeed....
Best, B

08.48 UK. Good morning! Been happily walking in my garden, dog skipping ahead, stopping to sniff at the air, me inhaling the new day. Wishing you and your darling a very happy Thursday. xx

[Patricia Wedel]

Thank you Emma Joy.., Blessings as you explore the Meadows of Lavender Heather ..

Thank YOU, dear lady. :)

[FGFRANKLIN]

I enjoy your forays into nature and the fine descriptive quality you paint this picture with. A very pleasing read.

[Patricia Wedel]

dear FG… I appreciate your Review as an Artist 🧑‍🎨… it seems to please our Creative Nature… softly, Pat

[FGFRANKLIN]

You're always so sweet. I wish I could exude and project an equally lovable persona. I'm a crusty old crustacean about as lovable as a crab. To quote T.S. Eliot, "I should have been a pair of ragged claws, scuttling across the floors of silent seas." Your poem was lovely.

[Patricia Wedel]

When I discovered Crabs,,, they seemed to smile with Rosy cheeks and went to Sea where Mermaids Dream. tenderly, Pat

[FGFRANKLIN]

Smile. "I have heard the mermaids singing, each to each, I do not think that they will sing to me." T.S. Eliot

[Patricia Wedel]

My daughter Edie Marie and her daughter Madeline recently saw the New Mermaid Movie at the Theatre… it is with human people (Mermaids).. I saw the Trailer version and it is Great… a Must See!!! Some day… before I expire…. and go to Sea 🌊 gently, Pat

[FGFRANKLIN]

I don't watch Disney movies anymore. I feel like the company has forsaken the ideals and morals of its founder, Walt Disney.

[Patricia Wedel]

We are now living in the Wild West Era once again… so many Morals gone astray… Be blessed. softly, Pat
