Through a Window on a Sunday Morning

 

Daffodils bursting butter yellow
From a warming poltice
Of last years leaves

A cross cut lawn
In ancient tartan
Kelley and lincoln green

Forsythia fireworks 
A sunburst
Igniting the split rail fence

Dove grey sky
With lady rain misting
A gossamer veil

My spade rests 
Waiting patiently
Against the dormant locust

I am content to watch and sigh
This soft warm moment
Painted ethereally
For me alone
