Today I’m happy
to just be
a bee perhaps
a fly
a ladybug
rocked gently
by the
placid breeze
the youthful leaf
is all I see
a patch of blue
could be
the sky
from where
sweet warmth
descends
on me
today I’m happy
to just be
alive

What a buzzzzzzzzzzz, just to "bee".
;-)
Just great!!!
Wonderful words Vesper, what a welcome to spring!
And how great to have you back, I hope your trip to NY was amazing!!!
Hugs, G :<)
PS: I just noted the tag: birthday, if you just had one, Happy Birthday to you! I just had one too. April babies are always kindred spirits it seems.
More hugs, G
smiles...happy to just be...is a wonderful thing...and as to the bees i was noticing them this evening buzzing around the trees off the front deck....we had a lovely spring day here today...was great to just be in the sun...
so how was the city?
and uh
happy birthday
Fireblossom, a buzzzz indeed! ;-)
Teri, thanks! :-)
Geraldine, thank you! Yes, Manhattan was amazing, as always... *big sigh*
And, yes, it is - well, it was my birthday until about 18 minutes ago - on April 8th. I loved the prompt this week, so suited to my mood. Happy belated Birthday to you too! You're right, we Aries are very much alike... :-)
xoxoxo
Brian, thank you... and thank you!
No bees here yet, just imaginary ones... :-)
The city was crazy and wonderful. Thank you for the tip for the High Line! So strange and beautiful to walk in this quiet park in the middle of the bustling city.
thumbs up! very timely emotion for sprigtime! =) happiness!
Vesper I would bee happy too if Alberta would quit sending those clippers south sometime soon...seriously from the high 60's to the mid 20's in 12 hours...did we do something to piss the Canadians off? besides keep the Stanley Cup?
If I had to be an insect, I think a hornet would be about my speed!
<3 it.
Also, finally a poem I'm smart enough to understand!
Paul
I enjoyed your Spring-like sentiment. :)
Oh, this is great!
Vesper this is so amazing...just letting ourselves "bee" :)
Love this simple little poem. It says so much in such a few words. Beautiful. And the perfect picture to go with it.
Stopping in to see what's new and wish you a wonderful weekend. It's SNOWING here!!! Yikes.
Lots of hugs, G
Thank you, coffee + cocoa! And what a wonderful name you have! :-)
Mark , wasn’t me! :-) And last week we’ve got plenty of snow from your side also… :-)
Charles, hmmm, scary… :-)
Paul, thanks! You’re so funny!:-)
Bernard, I’m glad you did! :-)
Thank you, Tumblewords! :-)
Keith, thank you! We should do that more often… :-)
Joyce, thank you. This is much appreciated.
Geraldine, so there too? Yikes indeed! And I already had my summer tires on. Not such a nice experience… Many hugs for you too!
I loved this, Vesper... so beautifully whimsical and lyrical.
I saw my first bee of the season in the crocus blooms (which are the only blooms who dare to show their faces yet) and I always think it must be magical to fly :)
Talon, thank you! :-)
Everything is so late here in Montreal... I can only dream of spring... (Although, I did see a bunch of snowdrops in somebody's yard... :-) )
Hi Vesper,
This is great, I could almost feel that spring/summer breeze! I wish I was any good at poetry, you seem to be excellent at it.
Also, happy birthday! :)
Julia
sweet... petite :)
down to freezing again tonite... maybe 13C, or so, tomorrow
Julia, thank you for visiting! And for your very kind words! And for the birthday wishes! :-)
LW, I saw a big butterfly in my garden a few days ago. I don't think it was a Monarch, but it was beautiful. Poor guy, he didn't seem very confident, as if he himself was wondering what he was doing out there so early... No flowers, not even leaves, only a shadow of green where the grass should be... I hope he's all right... :-)
