morning moon losing roundness

As well - a little serving of Basho
Now the swinging bridge
is quieted with creepers
like our tendrilled life

with every gust of wind
an old plastic bag in the street
tumbling tumbling

an old plastic bag in the street
travels the way of a wayfarer
is this freedom i muse

tumbling tumbling
without a doubt this age old song
waves at the beach

The Caladium in the image is from my garden. Eyes all rested, i'm back with this week's serving of The Sunday Standard. Here in T&T we have two national holidays this month, August 1st was Emancipation Day (Wikipedia say we are the only country with this holiday) and as well, on August 31st we will celebrate Independence.

these brilliant-hued hibiscus . . .
A lovely sunset
