a game of hopscotch | Telling the Truth

Tag: a game of hopscotch

the garden of my heart
sits quietly waiting
chairs placed side by side
beam with glowing luster

tadpoles swim
mosquitoes buzz
flowers dip and sway,
music from a springtime breeze
invites me out to play

lily pads provoke a game
of hopscotch cricket-style
dragon-flies flit overhead
and clap their wings for joy

cool water laps around the reeds
a gentle under-tone
announcing your arrival soon
to be with me
alone
