The dogs have busied themselves in the slant light garden of early day
daffodils still upright while the organic treat of freshly dug grass shows itself irresistible
Each tree has been examined for fresh signs of spring
magnolia flowers nearly spent
pear and apple in bud
fuzzy oak twig ends
lilac tips showing their petal colors
lone finch flies food to fountain
Home awaits with comforting arms open to receive the weary travelers
jazz piano and saxophone
here in the mid morning
my shoulders suggest more sleep would be just the thing
There is a secret I had learned but tucked too deeply away
it is this
we are a part of the garden
in the winter down time our homes are our earth
holding us inside
awaiting the full faced sunlight
the fast growing green grass
honeyed cascades of jasmine
meadow lark canticle
fleshy fig silken rose
I see a pair of goldfinches
shaking their feathers 
the season is preparing its dandelion apothecary
I am ready
