Wildflowers


As my spring flowers die

off in summer’s heat, I take joy

when wildflower blossoms

emerge just before fall

Tiny blue Forget-Me-Nots

balance pink and lavender

star shape asters

to give me a fresh view

from my balcony window

 



One Morning

 

I look out my window

one morning to see dark

grey clouds envelop sky

As negativity brings darkness

a bright shaft of light cuts

through the haze

It displays how hope

can still prevail
