Poetry Friday: My Summer Room

I am inspired today by Joy Acey’s magical Eco-tour of the Amazon. She invites us to write about our room.

Summer Room

In summer,
the patio
is our family room.
Breakfast,
the sun breaks
through
the sequoia sentinel.
Hummingbirds
sip morning nectar
I sip green tea and honey
Noon,
the sun dances
around
Douglas firs
I look up
from my book
as tiny wrens
flit here, flit there
Time to nap
with the lullaby
of finches.
Dinner
the sun
casts long shadows
over the rooftop
Hummingbirds
return for their
Evening cocktail
with gossip of the day

What are you favorite rooms?

Poetry Friday is at Paper Tigers

Happy Reading
