Ready For Her Close Up

above
the lemon burst sedum
rose campion strikes her pose

 

Readiness

the field prepared
weather on the move
commencement of the growing season

In The Pause

winter’s blanket thrown off
everything simmers
not quite ready to rise

Readiness

even the rock wall
is ready to shed
winter’s now dowdy coat

Readying

grasses softly sing
slumber’s sweet lullaby
of approaching dormant days
