day pauses at dusk
then hurries into the night
stars stride across sky
The rhythms of the day and night reassure me that the world goes on.

The rhythms of the day and night reassure me that the world goes on.
Orion sparkles
pool refreshes, goosebump skin
early morning joy
Although it seemed unlikely on many days, I have survived summer.
radish shoots burst forth
shaking off soil, stretching up
promise crunchy spice
Most beloved root vegetable, I welcome your signal of cooler days ahead.
