Today, the world around me is emerald and earth, set underneath an alabaster-flecked azure sky.
Today, I see life and death in equal measure, meted out in fields fresh from the plow.
Summer is coming in its heat haze and, with it, growth; then, with fall in her gold, maturity.
Time marches on, changing its garb as it goes.
The moment has passed and the storm with it (I was driving through most of it), but this is what came to mind as the sky darkened and the rain fell.

Today is raining, today is storming.
Today is cuddle time.
Today is game day.
Today is sexy time.
Today is candle glow and a good book.
Today is silence, a notebook, and pen.
Today is the patter of rain marking a beat for your mind,
Taking your heartbeat with it.
Minnetrista’s Oakhurst Gardens is one of my favorite spots in the world, especially in the springtime. ^_^
I can hear the wind talking outside,
With its moaned vowels and blustering h’s.
It wraps its arms around my home,
Begging for a hug before it head off on its way.
The wind can never stay long;
It’s always so quick on its heavenly road.
But those moments when it speaks to me
Are like whispers caught amidst a throng.
