the blue muse

simple things

making me smile…

three sections of garden put back in order

three solid days of sunshine in which to do it

staying up very late to finish a book

clearing space, in my garden, in my head, in my life

sundresses and songs from long ago

a hummingbird in the house and then back out

morning tea with my back to the still-messy beds

vegetables planted and growing

a sense of slowly coming home

contentment

What is making you happy is making me happy just reading about it!

I cannot express how much I needed a dose of your poetry this morning – a healing elixir served with a spoonful of beauty. You always remind me what it is to live well. With gratitude…
