And smelled the fragrance of the flowers
I marveled...

A ring - the wedding bells of buzzing bees.

Give Me DustGive me dust
Give me soil
Give me grubby knees
grass stains

The bumbles and buzzes of bees
Give me berries

On a Frosty MornLeaves glitter quietly, serene and slumbering,
Beneath the frost’s quick breath.

Shadowed by trembling winds of December,
Hopeful and happy beneath the jewels of laughing songs,
Inspirations drifting softly...
