One woman's reflections of past and present - people, places and things that contribute to the joy and sweetness; the sorrow and hurt of an everyday ordinary life.

April Days
Baby birds. Baby bunnies. Young squirrels scampering across
rain soaked ground looking for someplace to hide their food;
A herd of elk browsing on newly sprouted grass
in an open field nearby.
Mountain Man Gary hard at work, rota-tilling earth
and building boxes ten by five
to plant his home grown garden ,
and a fence to keep deer from
reaping the harvest
Cool temps bring wind and hail, and afternoon storms -
not warm enough for me to wear flip-flops and shorts
but warm enough for the Maple to bud, and
tulips to bloom
