This Used To Be Our Garden

This used to be our garden
Playing hide and seek
We ran, spun and had fun
That gate used to creak

We were loud and
Very rambunctious
Outside until we’re tanned
Running till we’re breathless

The sunflowers by the fence
They were our witness
We engaged in pretence
Like we’re ageless

They came every year
Just as we grew up fast
Gave us some cheer
The world is vast

Until the dark mist
Swallowed you up
You’re surely missed
Sad for the breakup

Carpe Diem Full Circle #1, Sunflower Reflection

carpe diem

sunflower blooming
not damaged by rain storm
puddles still there

sunshine on the beach
dancing waves across the sea
lovers making love

seagulls flying high
getting away from rain storm
lightning and thunder

wild plants on mountain
herbaceous peonies and sedums
nightingale singing
