While we wait, let’s eat-
pancakes on Sunday seem right,
not too indulgent.

Diaphanous clouds
shroud strengthening spring sunshine-
the skies the limit.

Almost time to say
goodbye to the belly- hi
to a new human.

Let’s forget about
the rain, have tea and muffins-
pretend it’s Friday.

Weary body, mind
buzzing- sunset tells me to
sleep, brain to stay up.

Blue upon blue on
blue, meet at the horizon-
sun scares clouds away.

Searing red curry
cooled by rich coconut rice-
we share a Thai lunch.

Grey clouds loom, sun peaks
over boughs of Douglas fir-
will it rain or shine?

Vivid daydream, pink
peony clasps golden heart-
June arrives with class.
