a summer rain


i sit in a favorite wicker chair
under a natural canopy
and can see in the distance
a brilliant orange blooming
from the Trumpet bush,
and listen to rain softly tapping
the broad, heart shaped leaf
of the Red Bud tree;
birds nestled between branches
adding their sweet song
to this lovely moment
Beautiful
Peaceful
Tranquil
and i think of the loved ones,
family and friends
who once sat in this place, too;
my mother and brother
with their love and laughter,
and am grateful.
