Summer Comes

Suffused with morning’s

gleam I rest upon a back porch

where snowy remnants

melt away in last days

of huddled crystals

once rampant as a runaway kite:

 

now birds begin to trill

as spring officially withdraws.

During my continuing convalescence from a brain aneurysm, I have come to enjoy watching birds and how they adapt to weather changes, similar to our own desires.

Hello Di_Hard, feeling much better now. The doc. said she had never seen such an eruption of sciatica nerve and muscle on my hip joint when I fell full flush on it. Thank you for your uplifting concerns- just turned 78 on Sept. 10th. And thanks for your delightful comment on my writing. May your own writing continue to be as full of artistic surprises as it emanates from ythe 20 5our heart. -RLP 

ps. My brain aneurysm took place 21 years ago and I am still under treatment and observation, for side issues as a result of that trauma, Life is good and Jesus is my healer. I am one of 20% of survivors.

Why does everybody write about summer and spring, now? It's a bit early if you ask me, well here it is really on the threshold of summer. It's wonderful you know.

Writer's are very fortunate to live every moment in all times and places. My work takes me anywhere I wish, no matter the season. At times I discover the winter is too harsh, so I change the season with a nice summer day. Thank you, Nolan for reading the work I love to share. -Richard LP
