My Summer Morning - Theme

My Summer Morning

Water drips
from the hose bib
as the long hose unwinds
and drags across the gravel
then kinks
needing a yank
to straighten
and quench my garden's thirst.

It is still cool
at 6 AM
but the silent heat of the afternoon sun
will be relentless.
For now the buzz of bees,
flutter of butterfly wings,
and water splashing
on the dry earth
are in harmony.
