night falls intensely
in the woods
whispering stillness

Daily Lune #3 inspired by Jane Dougherty’s daily short-form Poetry Challenge. And so out first full day of vacation commences. Last night outside our little lake cabin in the woods I was stunned by the stillness. This is going to be a good week. 😊
rooted deep, prevailing,
stripped lean from winter’s pruning
magnolia blooms resolute
~kat
remember me?
fragrant first bloom
on thorny pedicle
purest petals, unfurled
remember me when the wind
whispers you away
~kat
by another name
Eros, blood and tears
of Venus, Aphrodite
prickly hybrid
legendary bloom
a rose is a rose is
~kat
Spathiphyllum
from amidst the lush
fair lover of dark places
a lily that is not a lily
flame-like spathe raised
in fickle surrender, peace
in season, ever fleeting
~kat
like mercury colliding...
