SUNDAY SMILES

What's there to smile about today? Thank God for the grace of poetry 

❧✿❧

BLOG HOPPING TODAY WITH

breakfast at church -

smoked-herring sandwiches 

wrapped with gusto


the vacant lot

a few streets  up; a vagrant

still fast asleep


branches of willows 

bow to a grave of the dead -

whose ghosts haunt on site


a shiver

on a rainy moonlight

tingles his spine


 a sloe-eyed

 new gardener cuts the stem

of a laurel


slough of weary tales 

tall tales dreary tales told -

altered through the years


a garland of smiles

from passing young women

can fetch his gaze


on a May morning

 harness the hummingbird's dance

 to this faithful sheep
