Shhhhhhh, Listen

Hidden orange trees painted Migration of low-flung sun Small hand in mine held sweetly Bares autumnal hearts simple love's Exquisite secret October 2, 2020 Dodoitsu Poetry Contest Sponsored by Constance La France Brian Strand 1093 Poetry Contest March 20, 2022

A perfect title for quietly taking in the majesty of a sunset on a beautiful autumn day shared with one you hold so dear. Small hand = child? grandchild? That's how I like to interpret this, Lonna. Sharing nature's wonder with a little one. So glad I read this today. Blessings to you, my friend ~ John
