| Emerald treasure Crimson blushes in pink or white florets, plucked for their vernal fragrance as children search through fresh mown grass for four fingers attached to a petiole. How hard to stoop these days, and not fall over, smacked by wet cold ground. Oh, to be able to get up in a single bound, knees stained with wealth and happiness, as nimble fingers twirl in admiration at Fate grasped with one hand. © Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [179.6] (29.march.2022) 12 lines For

| Saint Regis remembered I have never stayed in Lake Placid, a misnomer encased in snow and ice, a place to drive though on the way to better vistas, calm cool nights. Spitfire, placid, hoped-for breeze, summer ease, bluegills caught, Sunfish sailing, a dingy's ride through golden lilies, a lake remembered for 50 years. © Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [179.4] (23.mars.2022) 106.027 |

| 4th element It's cold water falling from grey skies that washes away our grime and fears and douses old fires that never die. It pools where puddles splash with glee and mixes with dirt to make mud pies that frisky winds doth never lift. See summer's sun turns all to dust; but, do not grieve when water fails like us. © Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.380] (15.mars.2022) For

| In the garden He approached me head held high, open arms suggesting more than a hug. I thought about his offer. Sure, he was tiny, but as cute as a bug can be. Unless you're me, big, bold and constantly hungry. It was my job to maintain the bowers. Make sure that pests didn't take over flowers. I earned my security badge daily. But I am who I am, no praying mantis but predator and — he was so cute — and eager! We mated. I bit off his head. Lament not for the dead. His sacrifice made a bountiful meal. Our offspring will protect this patch until winter comes. © Copyright 2022 Kåre Enga [178.373] (28.februar.2022) 14 lines... almost a sonnet.  For February, 2022
