KIMMY -

Very Sweet & Savory Write. However, I am just a tad confused. does not 'fauna' refer to animals, while 'flora' refers to plants? Is it me?

If you meant the 'cattle' and the 'gnats' - then it still works!

Peace. Tom.

I sit, stilling,
under dark dripping bowers

You paint quite a captivating picture here, Kimmy.

In the midst of nature's garden, Kimmy, you find subtle expression where the fauna has softened the well-trod poetic path of quiet beauty that stirs imaginations...a perfect geographical collage of the season...
