Watching the grass grow

I like to watch the grass grow,
see the poppy petals fall,
feel the wind braid my hair,
hear the waves reach the shore.
I like the taste of strawberry red,
the smell of morning dew,
find the sand between my toes,
breathe in each day new.
I like the slow.
I like to watch the grass grow.

  2. I adore this, Terje, just wrote a poem about our beach time for Poetry Friday titled "Nothing-to-Do". It is a joy to miss the hurry!

  7. Terje, this is another set of beautiful photos accompanied by a poem. Might you consider creating a collage and adding your poem for my summer gallery? PicMonkey has a collage setting that works well. You can start in collage and then send the combination to the photo editor to embed the text.

  8. The photos, the words are wonderful. I hope you can continue watching the grass grow and I'm hoping to find some time to watch the grass grow before school starts.
