Happy Easter - and Joyful Resurrection Day!
Here is a poem I wrote some time ago. As I was going through my archives, I revised it considerably.
"Easter Sunday Morning"
The early morning choir twitters
Chirps deep inside the dusty bushes
accompanied by low, long mournful tones
of wheels turning against the pavement.
A hidden lemon chiffon sun brightens the sky
somewhere behind layers of melancholy mists -
softly warming the mahogany branches
of starkly naked springtime trees.
I made no special plans for today-
no periwinkle blue shoes or silken amethyst dress.
Instead, I recline on soft linen pillows
and write on ashen journal pages.
Tranquil. I listen and watch.
A gloomy opening of a hillside cave
dances through my thoughts.
>From somewhere in the Eastern world,
stories of old dreams continue to be told.
I contemplate the meaning of this day.
