Dragonflies at Sunset ~ Capitol Hill. Denver, CO

Deep in the sun-searched growths the dragonfly
Hangs like a blue thread loosened from the sky.

Wickson Plumbs - William Corbett

The evening cold comes up
around our toes. You no longer
hear the cricket then suddenly
they catch your attention again
like the flies bred through
all these wet days brushed away
from the plums. Green ones.
Fill my mouth with sweetness.

from "Wickson Plums"

The Cherry Tree

The  Cherry Tree
      Once I found a cherry stone,
I put it in the ground,
And when I came to look at it,
A tiny shoot I found.
The shoot grew up and up each day,
And soon became a tree.
I picked the rosy cherries then,
And ate them for my tea.

The Linden Trees Are Blooming!

A mediaeval love poem by Walther von der Vogelweide (c. 1170–c. 1230)

Under der linden an der heide, dâ unser zweier bette was, dâ mugt ir vinden schône beide gebrochen bluomen unde gras. vor dem wald in einem tal, tandaradei, schône sanc diu nahtegal.

Under the linden tree on the open field, where we two had our bed, you still can see lovely both broken flowers and grass. On the edge of the woods in a vale, tandaradei, sweetly sang the nightingale. (as excerpted from Wikipedia on Linden Trees)
