WRITING: Morning

Posted on May 22, 2005 by Susan

I love the violets; grape jelly smiles bid me good morning.  Johnny-jump-ups on green pogo sticks because they’re really short, you know.  The lavendar and white lilac trees I could close my eyes and find by following my nose around the house.  But dandelions, persistent yellow puffs so strong and sturdy, lie decapitated by the mower’s blades.

    I love the violets;
    grape jelly smiles
    bid me good morning.

    Johnny-jump-ups
    on green pogo sticks
    because they’re really short, you know.

    The lavendar and white lilac trees
    I could close my eyes and find
    by following my nose around the house.

    But dandelions,
    persistent yellow puffs
    so strong and sturdy,
    lie decapitated
    by the mower’s blades.

    I could mistaken, but that almost looked like poetry to me …

    I especially loved the last part. In fact, I liked it a whole lot. (*smile*)
