Down in the Grass

 

Click on photos to enlarge.

Summer in the meadows under shelter of tall grass—
in our youth we never dreamed that it could pass.
We had it firmly tethered so it could not slip away.
It curled in loosened coils around us as we lay.
Oh, tomorrow, wrapped up in today.
We never know the dreams we’ll lose along the way

For the Cosmic Photo Challenge: Down in the Grass

I know, once again my number of photos is excessive. Just take into account that they have been culled from 14,290 photos labeled “grass” in my photos file..Excuses, excuses. The poem is an excerpt from a poem I published years ago named “Desire.”

Grass will grow where grass wants to grow. No telling how it got into this pot by the pool.

Grass: FOTD 2/22/22 (Just had to do that)

I took a number of photos of flowers today, but for some reason my favorite shot was of this clump of grass with bougainvillea behind for a splash of color.

Just in case you don’t read comments, I have to repeat Forgottenmans comment below in reference to my title above. My title was: FOTD 2/22/22 (Just had to do that) He says: I saw some interwebs wag note that 2/22/22 is on a 2sday.  Ha!!!

Alfresco

This gentle little zephyr does not make a din.
We hardly know that it’s a breezy day that we are in!
We step so lightly over the smooth and green terrain
that we barely notice that it’s begun to rain.

Our bedroom’s warm and cozy. I suppose we should go home,
but nature’s made a softer bed in grass spread over loam.
You once called me nature’s child, and today it’s true.
The whole world is a comfy nest when I am with you.

The grass provides a mattress, the trees spread overhead
form a perfect canopy for our alfresco bed.
It is a perfect ending to our day of roaming
to wait here for the evening star, together in the gloaming.

Word prompts for today are din, zephyr, terrain, suppose, and bedroom.
