Walking in a field of lace~poetry

I wrote this after sitting on the ground, in the middle of waving flowers as Uriah chased a ground squirrel.

I took a walk intent on what I was to see

Tall grass and wildflowers

Mud and toads, grasshoppers and birds

But my intent was not to be

 

Even though each flower had grown spirited and tall

The winds interfered with my view

Grasshoppers hopped under my clothing,

And the mud enticed me to fall

 

I sat in the middle of a pattern of lace

My intent shifted over wind swept fields

I connected within that moment, and

I watched the bees and butterflies race

Gerardine this is simply a wonderful post. I could smell the flowers and wish I was there walking through them. Of course everyone who knows me know that I love wild flowers and nature. Thank you for bringing back happy memories to me.
