Yard Sale of Thoughts

A Special Occasion

Katie Frances Hartless
,

Nature makes today

a special occasion.

White table linen sky,

a bouquet arrangement.

Trees of different heights

pink and yellow sleeves,

as an honored guest,

I watch the candle sunset

cast shadows

on her dining table leaves.

Such thoughtful hospitality.

My eyes forever feasting.

      Thank you, Jeff. 💜 It’s another distractingly gorgeous day here. Like seeing that person you try not to stare at but it’s impossible to look away.
