Through Our Country Window

 

Rivulets stream

thinly

down landscape

sheerness

falling as a multiplicity

of confetti drops

bubbling & sprinting

onto aspen leaves

re-directed

into

rabbit shelters under

spreading fir

boughs

and we wish to

join them

in the joy of recovery.

Thank you kind folks for comments and the beautiful cherries - they are very encouraging to me, for this first poem in about 3 months. I had been dealing with various illnessess and feel much better now. So back to writing - something I enjoy immensely. -RIchard LP

Lovely! A cabin in the woods, a warm fireside and wild flowers in a mason jar.

I wondered why you're not writing, speedy recovery! ABC is very good for you.

Richard Cheers! Tom Brown

A lovely poem with words really that bring the scene to life.

I always find it interesting to read about people's homes and their environs. Perhaps 'through my window' would make a good inspirational point one week, if it hasn't been done already.

There can't be many of us who haven't got a window or two.

Mercie Turlough - your kind thoughts are a welcome.  Your writing is very good and quite funny too. Observe carefully what is outside your window and something magic will take place.

Merci à toi aussi!

I already spend half of my life looking out of my window. It's a habit that has stayed with me all my life. It fascinates me.
