A Garden Dances

Be still...a garden dances Pollination’s lush ballet Find your Zen with gentle glances The stage abuzz, new life advances Grand jetés in jaundiced sway Be still...a garden dances Succulent as new romance is Nectar sweet - a frail buffet Find your Zen with gentle glances With fickle fervor, pollen prances Bloom to bloom in roguish play Be still...a garden dances Astute design, no theory lances Sacral treasures time parlays Find your Zen with gentle glances Ponder all the fragile chances Life stirs life then flits away Be still...a garden dances Find your Zen with gentle glances 15 Sep 2019

David, one of your haiku from long ago appears at a blog Craig currently has posted. Just thought I would let you know and also came here to say I miss you and your fine work.

David, this is wonderful for the contest. I tried to write a Villanelle today for Silent Ones contest, it was hard to find all those a and b rhyming words
