undiluted happiness (for lilli)


I cherish these walks

in the rain with my daughter

our realm is painted softer

by watercolor brushstrokes

in this scene of tranquility

we notice little things

often overlooked

a filigree flash of dragonfly wing,

crystal jewels beaded on grass blades

and a small brown rabbit pausing

for an afternoon snack

we soak it all in, eager to be part

of this humbling respite,

a genuine need for harmony
