Good morning. Welcome to poetry day on the blog. May today feel like you are immersed in your own poetry.
I’ve been a little under the weather the last few days with a bug, and I’ve noticed that the strange blessing of feeling unwell is that it slows you down enough to notice things that you normally wouldn’t notice. The other day, after a big rainstorm, the sun was catching the raindrops on our screened lanai and made them dazzle in their reflection on the pool. I was so intrigued that I took a video of it.
After Many Springs by Langston Hughes
Now,
In June,
When the night is a vast softness
Filled with blue stars,
And broken shafts of moon-glimmer
Fall upon the earth,
Am I too old to see the fairies dance?
I cannot find them any more.
Readers, I am happy to report that I am not too old to see fairies dance in June. Are you?
Are you passing on love or are you passing on pain? Heal your pain and pass on love.
Kelly,
Hope you are feeling better!
Sending healing thoughts your way!
Thank you, Joan! Getting a little better every day. 🙂
