July Saturday
grey sky and
orange daylilies
July Sunday
light and wind
in the trees

growing taller

routine errands
routine errands
never routine
country roads
dragonfly rests
dragonfly rests
for a moment
on the tree branch
long enough for me
to see each wing
rain-silence
rain-silence
how well daylilies
and hosta grow
used books
used books
new for me
light on old
and new leaves
of a house plant
reading a new book
reading a new book
the fragrance
of fresh paper
