A Moment In Time

A glistening cobweb, on an old timber gate Rainbows reside in each drop of morns dew. Thin strands of white mist in the sun dissipate A scurrying mouse, weaving through the fescue. Black and white offspring of a paradise duck Fronds of a fern beckon new life in their curl Bees seeking sweetness into bright blooms do tuck While a gecko peeks out and departs in a twirl. Rata flowers explode with vibrant red lines While fantails flush insects with spirited style. Tangles of foliage making balanced designs Stopping and watching this instant worthwhile. Gone the hustle and bustle of rushing around Enjoying the pleasure of simple wonders to see. Never invisible these sights that are drowned Yet infrequently treasured by both you and me.
