Daily writing prompt
What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

As I type this post, the May garden grows and begins to look towards June. Today is sunny. We enjoy our old house, and are grateful every day. Good to have goals, and goals can be revised as needed. Memorial Day Weekend, 2023.

Mid-May Garden Poems

This morning, I am trying some ideas for short poems, from what I wrote yesterday.

grateful
to see old friends
time in the yard

flowers bloom
and bees visit
the gardens

primroses, ferns
daffodils, and
bleeding hearts

lily and hyacinth
plants from stores
now by the back door

Mid-May Garden

Some time in the yard, and grateful to see so many old friends. Primroses, daffodils, ferns, small bleeding hearts, and other flowers. We are grateful to see the bees. Our Easter lily plants are in the garden, near the back door. And also the small hyacinth plants we bought at a store.

Daily writing prompt
What was the last live performance you saw?

This prompt brings back memories of attending concerts by the MSO Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra some time ago. We watch many good art and music programs on Milwaukee PBS. Thank you.

new green leaves

new green leaves
on trees that knew

the colors
of dramatic autumn

in silence sometimes
and in small ways

new dreams grow
