Unhurried, A Pretty Look, Wonderful In A World Away

April in Full Frame | A 52 Week Photography Challenge

April is unhurried, slow-moving, soul-soothing.

Forest pretty greens
synchronized
with
the earth’s gentle pace,
a gentle reminder to flow with my body’s natural rhythms,
another reason to be grateful
for
Spring renewal,
tempting me to step outside,
dreaming of wonderful places, half a world away.

In this country

I plant a tomato garden, following
in the footsteps
of
my grandparents and parents,
passing their heritage onto my children.
