Monday WRites 162


PATTERNING A NEW DAY
To paint the patterns of morning
Bird songs canvas the art of daybreak
Wind daubs the colours of dawning
Lightening sky with tints of clouds and
Shrill whistles to patterns of morning
A host of feathered choruses sound
Flowers lift cherry faces of praising
Then why not you and i our hearts to
The gift of new day in our welcoming
Faith another station to the structure
Add to paint the patterns of morning

Monday WRites 161


INTENSE
After a day of intense World Cup football, we here in T&T were served some intense stormy weather: complete with lightning and thunder. This morning its bright and sunny. And in my area, looks like it never rained at all last night. As for the flowers the wild ones, the planted ones, they all seem to be smiling a littler brighter this morning

who loves the rain most-
surely
the flowers do

ME
Laughter in gulps, tea in sips,
nature a coverlet, the finest counterpane,
introspection - guardian of silence,
armour of joy, window of smiles,
the adulting mind, the charming apron;
all these, cover a soul, who really is a child,
tender, frightened, tear-stained: me.

Monday WRites 160

[World cup balls 2006 -2018 images from google dot com used to form this mosaic; Fair use]

NEW WAVE
Watching the World Cup matches had been for me a TV screen view in the comfort of my home. This year i'm still viewing in the comfort of my home, BUT, at my computer screen.

Having thrown out my old TV which i had for more than ten years [because it suddenly went blank, never to wake up again]. New age, new wave, new experience. Enjoying the games non-the-less

a goal almost scored -
a hesitant rain shower
sounds on my roof

Caladium in my garden after a few days of rain tease

AH CALADIUMS
Ah Caladiums, a tiny nudge of raindrops,
they cycle in like toddlers.
Happy faces ready for adventure,
ready to show-off new found skills.
Wheee!!! look at me, speckled
to the likes of my fancy.
Happy the rains have finally
decided to cycle in.

Monday WRites 159


[I cropped 3 images from the internet to form today's mosaic]

HEARTBREAKER
Night, shamed into mists of dawn,
Rests a coy head against pillows of drifting cloud.
Silver light lends an allure to winged messengers,
Proclaiming today.
This newness, as stale as yesterday's birdsongs,
Enlivens coolness of daybreak;
Like a heartbreaker, it will not stay,
For torrid are these days though the Season
Of The Rains are upon us.
HEARTBREAKER © gillena cox 2018
