A little nature and marriage poem for you today! (from my front porch heart to yours!)
The possum in our front yard lumbers into hiding this morning as slow as a turtle crawls, nearly on his belly by night’s light. Then, blue birds gather and swoop for cat food-today’s hunt, just for them. Now, two doves noisily make love on a branch up above us, fresh yellow columbine flowers say yes again beside us… and we agree with yellow for the first time in a while; your left hand slips into mine, so naturally, and then within, we somehow know again, we are already one.
