Shabbos Observations<\/p>\n\n\n\n

grass
lush with green,
still warm from
yesterday’s sunny afternoon
summoning my bare feet to dance<\/p>\n\n\n\n

birds
chorus in song, along
to the percussion of wind chimes<\/p>\n\n\n\n

morning glories
have awoken, and giggle
at the busy bees and wasps buzzing by
on their daily commute<\/p>\n\n\n\n

tree tops
tip their hats
to greet one another with
kibbitzing <\/em>whispers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

painted ladies
present their dance cards to a group of purple cone flowers,
who accept<\/p>\n\n\n\n

clematis and cardinal vine
chase each other up the fence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the peonies butlers
balance trays of champagne flutes
while virgin finch and sparrow blush and flutter with one another
at the seed bar<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sunbeams
dance a lazy rumba of shadows
in the arms
of the garden wind<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
