is a whisper

of stirring

as it begins

to ruffle

dormant leaves

now shaking

with glee--

 

a garden of trees

dissolves

into new shapes

creating

a flush

of bee hive

sounds. Soothes

all as

mosquitoes flee.

You make me think of John Denver- Windsong. Especially the first stanza and yes another beautiful poem on nature! We are celebrating youth day today.

Thanks Tom for kindly comparing me to John Denver, still my singing hero with his wonderful poetic nature songs. Such a shame the way he died at the height of his meteoric career and stiill so young.

Yes it is tragic he died young. I believe he originally came from Canada, some of his lyrics makes one think so.

Stay well! Mooi bly! Sala ghachle!
