Coffee On My Deck

 

 

 

A cup of hot coffee

The plaintiff sound of a far away lawnmower

The swooshing sound of traffic on a nearby street

A dog barks

Wind chimes tinkling lightly

A monarch floating purposefully from blossom to blossom

Fluffy seed pods drifting by in the breeze

Gray clouds with puffs of white

Patches of blue

Tops of the pampas grass swaying gently

A cool breeze disturbs the leaves

Tree tops moving in unison

A broken branch point upward

Yellow and purple pansies are still full of color and beauty

Small white butterflies flitting from flower to flower

Crepe myrtles alive with bright white, soft lavender, and gaily red blossoms

Lee laying close by ever watchful

Coffee is gone.

    The one thing I miss after selling our house is the patio. How I loved sitting there is the early morning wrapped in a robe drinking coffee. Happy memories. Thanks for sharing. Sharon
