pink confetti drifts on the breeze 
it’s windblown

Storm clouds gathering all around 
blustery gales turn the sails round

Springtime With Gramps
The death of winter carries varied sights.
In April, when dandelions roar, “It’s Spring!”
green yards transform by magic overnight.
Gramps had sprayed his lawn, but in ours...

When crepuscular shadows loomed in a bay
to grate upon this opulent view’s grandeur,
my visceral thoughts reeled like windmills

Vibrant red and hues...
