OVERT

A TREND I would like to see:
OVERT optimism with a splash of joy,
Steeped in abundance,
Served on a bed of roses

Georg’ann

Dancing slowly, practicing POISE
as we suspend motion,
balancing on one foot or toes.
Arms reach and cascade like silk ribbons.
Movement from the interior.

DETOX from news, lists, worries and OTHER disturbances.
Spring is OVERT now,
telltale robin’s eggshells
cracked half on the sidewalk. Doves nesting in the eaves. Fresh mown and shaggy
not yet mown lawns,
abundant bugs and blossoms.

Lush and loud.
You have my attention,
and my gratitude.
