"I do not know which to prefer,
The beauty of inflections
Or the beauty of innuendoes,
The blackbird whistling
Or just after." *
Some mornings
even the coffee cup
refuses to sit up straight.

Such beautiful photos of greens shown through filtered light! You live in such beauty!
ReplyDeleteSo green and lush. I love this kind of countryside. Really contrasts with the countrysides Lana and I saw on our vacation
ReplyDeleteLovely, lush, green, the warmth of companionship and children too. And a lovely cup of coffee and cream- a perfect Sunday!

That was a delightful post! I love the first poem. I heard the echo of the blackbird's song. Love the sihlouette of the bird, the dog in front of the house, the website adddress and the cup of espresso. I could live in your post for a while! Thanks.
