The sky, freshly laundered, looks ironed; the storms have moved on. A few last raindrops slowly trickle down the window pane; the air, delightfully cool, wafts in to tease the curtains; a flash of scarlet cardinal bursts forth in joyous song ... yes, it is a beautiful morning.
Another beautiful write, we have finally been having some of the sun LOL
God Bless
Michelle!

Nothing like a sunny day after a stormy night! We are finally getting some rain here today and no one is complaining. Didn't mind I had indoor plans today :-) Wonderful write.
My review is under Mariah's name. She's my daughter and was logged into the Den under her name without me knowing it. Your poetry is awesome...this verse especially.
Susan...ya know...Mariah's Mom.
...and this is a grand verse to herald this momentous day. You all have had your share of heat, tornadoes and violent weather in Texas. It is about time you get some beautiful days. Your verse is a classic one. Your description is defined by the sun coming through the clouds.
Love and Peace,
Susan
'Better Without You'is a compelling narrative that explores the complexities of an affair, hidden secrets, and abuse. It also highlights a daughter's heartfelt journey as she cares for her mother who is battling dementia.
The deep-dive literary meditations presented as stories, poems, and essays in The American Poet Who Went Home Again, A Mosaic of My Soul at Work, have captivated and inspired readers ever since its first paperback publication in 2008.
In a post-coup America, an Illinois farm boy is drawn into the resistance by his brother's death. Captured, he is given a choice: betray his friends, or the girl he loves will be lobotomized.

We must be "in tune" again, today.
In my garden this morning, I had some of these same feelings.
