glitter of love


Ah, the waft of petrichor,
titillating tiny droplets find
their way down to verdant feet
where they were meant to lay
and give a sparkle to the otherwise
grey of day

t’is the fondness of this moment
that incites reveries and will paint
upon the canvas of my memory, to
sometime in the future, avail me of
a fondness in nostalgia

soft classical piano guitar fills the room
while still i can hear the cardinals and
sparrows praising Nature’s early day as
i sit here looking out our front room’s window
with my arm around my wife and our two
children of canine genetic descent

of this, i inhale a breath of joy hence life
has provided me and am grateful of this
wonderous gift that has been bestowed upon
me, so with a smile and a soft and slighted tiny
tear, i thank Life’s Spirit for showing me this
glitter of ‘Love’
