Haiku - Dawn

golden sunny dawn
                                 butterflies kiss jinias 
                                 hummingbirds whistle

Dawn: At dawn, spending unlimited time in my garden, which is a refuge for reflections, solitude and introspection, is the best jouissance life can bring. I am mesmerized with the way the butterflies, flowers and birds nurture our creative souls.

Andrea Dietrich Date: 8/8/2020 9:50:00 AM a beautiful scene. If I were the meditative type, for me this would be the best place just to sit and watch nature!
