Living Poetry

A Poem by Donald Meikle

A pool's solar cover buried in Andromeda blossoms

A rhododendron tree buried in sunburst flowers

Two multi colored waterlilies rocking in fish feeding frenzy

flag iris blooming from an uprooted plastic bucket

surrounded by the persistent koi that tore it loose

Humming birds sitting on feeders in momentary truce

a second or third cup of coffee almost ready to swallow

handful of freshly picked asparagus about  to join others on the  kitchen counter

A red-tail hawk harassed by a few insane blackbirds sails by

This is late May in Barbara's Eden as she writes another to do list
