flower to kiss

flower to kiss

sunshine kissing my left cheek
as i enjoy the view of a creek
mist floating, forming shadow
hugging the undulating flow

early ducks, geese waddling
some with small darlings
crystal clear dew on leaves
growing, shining, then drips

deer nibbling green grass
wiggling her tail, no rush
butterfly flapping with grace
eyeing a flower to kiss

silent leaves

when dusk embraces the radiant sun
i see flashes of green far beyond
then deafening silence covers land
broken by crickets up the palms

clouds soon clearing the sky
vast canvas where minds will fly
cool brilliant light from above
carving silhouettes in the dark

reaching the unknown to be one
punctuated knowing seems to plunge
welcoming breeze ebbs and bounds
in the darkness slowly drowns
