One lemon(y) afternoon


Grace @ Everyday Amazing


I found tran-
quil(i)ty on bed
of lemon-tarred leaves,
zest-stirred by autumn breeze

 My eye-
lids drooped
to slow tick-tock-chuck 
of warm sun(shine) un-ra-vel-- i --- n----- g

    I love it. The flow of the words is tranquil itself. Nice, smooth and fluid.

    Oh oh OH! I adore this. That unraveling, that quilty bed of tranquility, the smell of lemon...the creation of the word "zest-stirred." YES. Thank you for this gorgeous piece.

    "lemon-tarred leaves" - what a perfect description. We had glorious fall weather too - till today. The Rains have come.

    Very nicely done Grace--I would fail if there were no such thing as broken lines. This topic would also look good as a haiku.
