NATURE'S TENDER DOINGS

The green outside is winking at me;
it arose merely moments ago,

like a well-rested child rising from sleep,
its radiance is dewy with stardust.

It twinkles my way, coos me to play
in one more unplanned day of wanderlust.

The air is still cool, and each blade of grass—
its hairs stiff...
Read the rest of the poem here, dear friends. And thank you.
