Ah, for blossoms-
to bring gusts of wind
to my summer garden

how cool it is!
in summer, beneath trees
as if in flower.

winter’s rose
braids, ponytails
such are the things of the past-
winter’s rose
winter’s rose
a summer moment
time of summer clothes,
and someone up the pathway through the field,
showing faintly white

oak street plaza
Oak Street Plaza Park is a hardscape, cobblestone area with cafe tables and chairs where people are invited to enjoy a break from shopping and chat with their friends.
In the summer, children (as well as a dog or two) are fascinated with the water as it jumps from the sculpted “rocks’ or sprits in the air from the cobblestone.

a long hard journey
rain beating down the meadow
