Notes About The Poem

Soothing Sense of Morning

In the morning, 
Under bright, not yet hot, Sun
I water the garden,
Greens of all shades,
A sprinkling of flowers, in pastel hues
Plants all, soaking up their daily drink
With thirsty smiles
Water, running endlessly
From the river through the hose
Flowing, contained, now free
Soothing, nourishing, sustaining
All the plants
And me.
