The blossoming of summer flowers
and a few clusters of trees create a shield
against the crumbling outside world.
A glance over our fence and into my neighbor's yard
and can catch a glimpse of their well-manicured lawn,
a couple of blue jays fluttering int he birdbath,
and their one of their many cats, this one a deep ebony
attempting to sneak through their hydrangeas.
Light usually shines though the canopy of trees
but today's overcast
and there is no sunshine left for me to use.
Time always finds a way to leak through.
A light salmon is considering departing the sky
and letting the ash take over for the night.
Between the shades of lotus and shadow
a gentle melody can be heard from an unknown source
and a hidden pile of memories.
