A lonely bench waits
for emergence of leaves,
rain turning to warmth,
the summer sun casting long
shadows – evening lingerings.
(A tanka for Ragtag community’s prompt: wait. Image from personal collection.)
Waiting on Summer
One Woman's Quest
Passion for writing ignites my soul's momentum
Longer shadows and longer days. Soon the bench won’t be so lonely!
