Contemplation And The Bench

the empty bench
holding space
for all of my thoughts

The Garden Bench

in morning shade
watching
a summer day unfold

In Nature’s Backyard

the silent travels
of shadows
and wildlife

In That Space

between the leaves
and their reflection
resides consciousness

Contemplating the Flowers

shooed from the garden bed
the porch as
observation perch

Reassurance

tiny blue flowers
joy enough
to dispel doubt

Visit

sit awhile
and listen to
the flowers conversation
