Honeysuckle Muse

A quiet day – time to reflect...

What to report? I scan the Net

But nothing that I read entices

Just politics and endless crises.

 

Outside, the sun warms terrace plants

White honeysuckle flowers dance …

I cut some mint, sweet thyme and chives

Their survival – a surprise!

 

Post-COVID, friends can keep in touch

A sudden phone call means so much

A bite to eat, or cup of tea

Tastes better in good company!

 

The phone rings, there is no reply …

But I am tempted by blue sky

So, I give in to this temptation

And indulge in meditation …

Sweet-smelling honeysuckle
