This is the Day! 
Fuchsia in the back garden
Fuchsia in the back garden 
Field Notes
April 3, 2013 
   
Hummingbird dangles
beneath fuchsia’s  
bright parasol.
 
A jeweled ornament
in the back garden.
 
Gone now
like the dew
in the sun.
 
Let us drink
this sweet beauty
and sing a short 
song of remembering.
 
Let us now spin
around the back garden
beneath invisible 
whirring wings.
 
For this is the day
we know why
the earth spins
and the stars
hang
in the sky!

    1. Lynn, did you notice the previous post, the reblog? That is my first attempt at a video of bird sounds.
      So glad you liked this one!

        1. Good to know. I’m trying out doing a blog of my street photograph and reblogging it to light words. Maybe it isn’t working so well. Any way your post from last week inspired my video, thank you.
