A flower unfolding
in delicate glow
The softness and beauty
of new-fallen snow
The moon overhead
smiling her beams
The clouds reflecting
last night's lovely dreams
A shadow that's cast
by a tree's gracious boughs
The touch of a rainbow
The shimmer rain shows
The lights of the city
A building's great height
The brick and the mortal
A turret delight
An alcove
A street lamp
the cobbles
the fence
A smile on a child
in her brand new pink dress
The kids in
the playground
Red buses
New shoes
The thundering subway
Man singing the blues
The wind as it whistles
The mills as they turn
The glow of a flame
as slowly it burns
The smiles
and the tears
The shades
and the lights
the darks
and the yellows
the stars
in the night
The way my soul wanders
when I'm near the sea
Life's tender unfolding
All inspire me.
