follow the sun.

Posted on by
Standard

walking downtown each day

passing by this house/garden

that seems to come into being

overnight

 yet

vine

by

vine

and

stem

by

stem

with

sweat

and

time

and

sun

and

rain

and

soil

and

wind

and

toil

and

finally

a lot of

pure love

then one day

i look way up

 see shining giants

as big as the house

as bright as the sun

 stand proudly in front

this friendly gentleman

has found his home in his garden

has found his joy in this bright beauty

has found delight in sharing it all with the world.

 

“the flower that follows the sun does so even in cloudy days.”

  10. So here I am, a bit notalgic for the days when early in the morning I opened up WordPress’s “Daily Prompt” of yesteryear. Somehow, your blog, while searching to see if it (the daily prompt) had been revitalized, appeared and I recognized it. There were many enthusiastic posters way back when. WordPress sort of pulled the rug from beneath our feet. However, I was happy to see that you are still with it. That’s good; writers write. I’ve also kept up a good routine but devoting much of my time to novels. I still post on my website; not as rubust as before.
    Take care, keep writing.
