30 April 2013

A bright, sunny day.
The dog sleeps in the front yard,
Warm, safe, and happy.

29 April 2013

I have spent this day
Reading, writing, and thinking.
What could be better?

27 April 2013

No sunset tonight,
Clouds made the sky dark as night
And then came the rain.

24 April 2013

A full moon tonight,
Pale blue in the blue-black sky
Floating between clouds.

23 April 2013

Waiting in my car,
The rain pounding on the roof,
I can see nothing.

22 April 2013

Awake, six A.M.
My mind will not let me sleep.
Thinking of nothing.

20 April 2013

From across the lake,
The sounds of traffic moving,
Keeping me awake.

19 April 2013

As we lie in bed,
With rain pounding on the roof,
We barely notice.

17 April 2013

Dogwoods in the yard,
White blossoms on every branch...
Spring is here at last.

16 April 2012

Watching the downpour,
Hearing the distant thunder,
Black clouds overhead.

14 April 2013

I am surrounded
By a blizzard of paper;
Blinded by the white.

11 April 2013

Raining all day long.
My mood as black as the skies.
Even the dog's glum.

8 April 2013

A rabbit hiding
In the bushes, quivering,
As our dog watches.

6 April 2013

Not wanting to sleep,
Afraid of what I might dream,
Lying in the dark.

5 April 2013

Tulips opening
Under the tree just outside.
I see them as I work.

4 April 2013

Drifting off to sleep,
Brought back by memories
Of friends far away.

1 April 2013

Far from city lights,
A sky filled with stars above
I can't look away.
