Every Day
Sunrise sends greeting
Creator’s hand wakens day—
Glorious morning
Echoing Cadence
Soul-filled percussion
Pulsating afternoon sky–
Thunder’s rhythmic beat
Still Here
Hot days continue
Waiting for autumn colors—
Summer must insist

Thank you Crissy. It is always a blessing to share one of my photographs (as I did with the first poem). It was taken at my wife’s hometown.

Donna, I appreciate you reading and sharing. The photo is one of my favorite from an early morning walk a couple of years ago when my wife and I were visiting her hometown in Maryland.

I agree. We’ve had a few of those thunderstorms this summer, probably more than usual.
