bring me wildflowers
& set them
on the sideboard
by the window
to catch
the suns’ rays
for the petals
that dapple all
of the surfaces
like tiny pixies
set to play
bring me laughter
to eclipse the day
as the moon does
to the surfaces
of the sun
a smile to soften
the harsh edges
of all anger
a candle with which
to light the dawn

Good to see you here. Thank you for the heartfelt comment. Between work and trying to get the outside of the house painted I’ve had little time to write but during the Winter months that will hopefully change. Hope you and your family are well.

Lovely poem dear Renee.. Nothing like a fresh vase of flowers to bring the warmth of their colours and fragrance into a room to brighten our home and our spirit.. Wonderful .. And Wild flowers picked by our grandchildren bring us even more delight 🙂 xxx >3

Thank You. My granddaughter is a single mom presently but dad, I believe, is still in the picture. His name is Danny and he is a good looking lad. At 62 I can hardly believe it but then I was a grandmother at 40. 🙂
