summer breeze

blows the kitchen curtains inward

i see the movement from the corner of my eyes

 i am wiping down the inside of my refrigerator

i am glad for the cooler air 

filling my kitchen with the sweet and easy scent of summer

rain comes in i can hear it falling steady and soft

there is a storm expected later in the afternoon

 clouds are piling up over the Atlantic on the east side of the island



 i return to my housekeeping

hands in the soapy water

and my eye on the corn I've set to boiling





Please consider joining me for Tuesday Afternoons

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you
