Warming air scented
with sweet baby powder musk-
blooming mock orange.

April 29, 2017

Winter’s shy seedlings
become spring’s bounty- homegrown
kale greens up our lives.

April 28, 2017

Sooner or later,
we all fall down- delicate
petals in wet grass.

April 27, 2017

In the spring, when love
birds twitter, my heart bleeds- you
put it in bouquets.

April 26, 2017

Spring springs forth from dull
brown winter remains- verdant
green catches the eye.

April 25, 2017

Ready to transform,
spring is in the sweet air- it’s
time to spread our wings.

April 24, 2017

Blue like the sea, blue
like spring flowers- blue like my
heart that forgets not.

April 23, 2017

Morning tea to start
the day- jolt of bergamot
to pry open eyes.

April 22, 2017

Your kicks startle me,
reminder of miracle
of life- pregnancy.

April 21, 2017

31 weeks past,
9 weeks or your choice left- 3rd
trimester shock hits.

April 20, 2017

This sunset is but
one more memory fading-
vacation is done.

April 19, 2017

On glum grey days, I
close my eyes, I’m here again-
Huahine bliss.

April 18, 2017

Profound quiet fills

the house, I miss you each day-

my truest friend gone.
