Poem 6

Hummingbird ‘prisoned
Frantic, fatigued sipped nectar
From our hands to fly.

Lying in our palm
Having no choice but to trust
Gaped its beak for strength.

Only once in a
Lifetime could such as we be
Blessed by such a bird.

Poem 5

Lazy sun at its
Highest, butterflies in flight,
Archie Comic Books.

Summer vacation,
A blanket beneath the sun,
Scent of coconut.

Snacks of crackers, cheese,
Pickles, Grandma’s Cherry Pie.
Youth, both sweet and tart.

High temperatures,
Melted patches on the road,
Popping tar bubbles.

Riding bicycles
Folded cardboard in the wheels,
The sounds of summer.

Poem 4

In the time of rains,
Scents otherwise unpleasant,
Smell sweet, like fish worms.

Poem 3

The Blue Dawn Flowers
Glories in the Morning Sun;
Climbing their trellis.

Moonflowers open
At dusk to say Good Evening
Till the Daylight comes.

Mother Earth offers
Flora and Fauna Day thru
Night, while birds share too.

Evening Grosbeaks sing
At dawn belying their name.
The Day’s songbird trills.

Nocturnal songsters,
The Whippoorwill shares the night
Beneath the Moon’s beam.
