A Harmonious Day

Seasonal flowers Still in full bloom In multi-colored splendor On the patio awaiting fall leaves To clothe it in a new palette
Walking along a beach At low tide Searching for driftwood Formed by the tides Into natural sculptures
As the day recedes In the glow of the sunset And the star filled sky Transforms the hours Into the tranquility of night
Waiting for Fall
