lemony summer
planting rice stalks in rich soil,
butterflies abound
~0~0
seeds in my small hands
grow to tall and mighty trees,
giants walking earth
~0~0
black smoke and grey fumes
above the white cityline,
drooping sunflowers

"lemony summer"
ReplyDeleteOh, what a rich and fragrant line!
Mother of the Snows
Mother of the Lights
Mother of the Winds
thank you for the lemony freshness,
ReplyDeletethe walking giants planted by your hand and the attention called to how it can be smudged by smoke and fumes.
any chance to call attention to these exigent issues in an artistic venue has more significance.
A great trio Grace! The last one is so sad, but true.
