Pattern of blue blooms
Has taken over my lawn--
A runic design.
Sunshine leaves merge
Into a bright green pattern--
Melting of substance.
Clusters of sun spots
Gather bright by the roadside--
Dandelions grow.
At top of the hill
A small but distinct presence:
A black and white cat.
Shiny russet leaves
Seem supremely innocent.
(They're poison ivy!)
Discarded dog shit
Still in its black plastic bag.
How has it survived?
All buds are brighter
In the light of early May.
Even dead leaves glow.
Mysterious path
Has sprung up next to the road.
(New just to my eyes?)
