there caressing the liquid clay the potter's mind at work

with hands mere extensions of God's creating word sanctioning light -

command of bird songs drawing sky curtains for a sunrise

such masterful strokes contained therein a picture worth priceless words

eventide flowers in the garden their varied sleep patterns

the new normal silence of pandemic lockdown days dissolves

sweet songs of garden birds lost to sensible hiding ways

a ruffle of drapes -

sound of windchimes

they tinkle sweetly

The night before; in between a patter and splash of raindrops on the pavement, there arose an unusual wind. Which, not content to only ruffle Mrs. Anansi's pretty new drapes, she ruffles and weaves herself into the Anansi house, winding her way up the Anansi staircase, into the Anansi bedrooms, peering here, and peering there, until at last, reaching the room shared by Anansi and his charming wife. Here, this unusual gust, shapes herself into a giant windy hand, large enough to pick up an unsuspecting, Anansi, leaving behind, Mrs. Anansi asleep. [Excerpt from my book - Anansi: An Unusual Experience]
