Moss Garden

Moss on the shaded ledge
   spreads across the rooftop of the shed
   gluing shut the shingles edge,
sun reflects the spurt
   lemon yellows, lime green patchworks
   gathered quilted coverlets of quirk;
willow limpets sweep away
   residue of broken branch leaflets braised
   browned and burnt by summer heated light rays;
suddenly the day becomes night torn
   shadowu images stepping walkings formed
   beneath the cloudy sky dark swarms,
hurricane gusts race then stop
   wild and free tempests pops
   sprawling in between every treetop,
earth below the storm
   cools briefly from the chilly warm
   and at last, breathe in the lulling calm.
