A hidden partner cavorts with leaves

Dancing silently in the breeze.

I look out at the sparrows on the feed

Above a garden I have to weed.

The hibiscus has one bloom

Struggling in the day’s gloom.

Facing up like a satellite

Defiant in the day’s none light.

In the distance a dog simpering

A bark followed by whimpering.

Down comes a solitary drop of rain

Streaking down the window pane.

But happy am I in this mood mellow

Listening to the deep resonant cello.

The smell of fresh bread baking

Fruits of early morning bread making.

My Saturday brain isn’t able

To complete the crossword on the table.

This morning I am very content

To enjoy this moment heaven sent.

My steaming coffee smells so good

I wouldn’t change it if I could.
