Now is when you catch a sunbeam
and put it in the pocket of your cut-offs,
storing it for a rainy day. Then, you can
cup it cool on tear-stained palms
and release it into the wild, unleashing
freckled sunshine into the madness
of a world at war with light.
Meanwhile, Melody Muses... 
So very beautiful … to release freckled sunshine into the madness of the world!
Thank you,
Daniela
Thanks Daniela. I hope your summer is giving you lots of pleasure so far!
You are most welcome … love your ability to tell a story within a poetry. It is middle of winter over here in New Zealand -:)!
Take Care,
Daniela
I forgot you were out there. I always remember the Croatia connection, and then forget you moved. 😦 How is the winter, then?
Cold, went, windy! Hopefully not for much longer … here is hoping. And yes, there is high summer in Croatia right now!

A lovely picture.
Thanks! It’s a martagon lily called ‘Cadense’, rather a lovely name.
Made me smile. Again.
Well, cut that out! (Actually, bring it, Russ! Smile away!)
Oh my goodness gracious, you’ve packed a lot of Power in this lovely one, Mel!!!
Catch one on my behalf, would ya? 🙂
Sure ’nuff.
Wise to store that sunbeam. I forgot and now it’s raining! Beautiful lily.
It’s a very pretty one called ‘Cadense’. Save the next one that comes by, will you? 🙂
I will have to be quick!
Oh – I wish…
Wouldn’t that be nice?? A lot of world issues would be solved on the spot, methinks…
Love the thought of releasing freckled sunshine into a world at war with light. Beautifully told!
Thanks Pam! Let the release begin! 🙂
beautiful!
Thanks Heidi!
Power imagery. 🙂
Thanks Shannon! How is your summer going so far??
So far, so good! It is always a blessing to have some time off. 🙂 How about you?
Spending lots of time in my garden – bliss! 🙂
