Dust Storm

along the horizon
a dust cloud rises and swoops
a strange bird of prey

weeding the garden
foreboding afternoon sky
graced with a rainbow

~~~~~~~~~~~~

misstep in puddle
a rainbow swirls and clings
to my new boots

Sunday morning
my grandchild ask me to sew
a rainbow tie

~~~~~~~~~~~~

quiet evening
through bare branches
a pale rainbow

early evening
three fish swim though
rainbow on my floor

Hopefully this is the return of regular postings at Carpe Diem. Playing catch up since I was not aware Kristjaan was posting again.

stormy weather
with the dawn a fallen oak
cry of a new grandchild

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

sleepless night
dark shadows mock the moon
shivering with cold

suddenly warm arms reach out
waves of love enfolding me

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

smoldering rubble
all the crazies
spread conspiracies
