Author notes
Through the window,
a willow tree basks,
in the morning sun.
Its boughs sway gingerly,
with a slight breeze,
of an oncoming storm.
Delicate blades,
of green grass,
whip around angrily.
Shaking off the chill,
of spring nights,
and cloak of dew.
The atmospheric pressure pushes
clouds beneath along,
and spring tears in the distance,
caress the ground.
As well as,
sending succulent aroma,
of neighbors apple orchard,
clumsily my way.
The old shingles begin,
to flap as the wind grows stronger,
and I withdraw from the window.
Wrapping myself tightly,
in my morning robe,
I retire to the kitchen,
for some coffee.
Thence enjoying the
sweet sound of music...
