Sunday Afternoon In Spring


haiku horizons





walking along the lane to clovelly for a swim
picking scented geraniums and hibiscus
hearing the pounding of the waves in the distance
salt spray in the air -seafood  night tonight
life does not get much better

in a place like this
it would be hard to deny
God's generosity

hope springs eternal
and has certainly blossomed
this year in our spring

  6. I loved the painting with Jacaranda trees and the colonial building. Clovelly beach looks like a really safe beach to swim at. We have got to be quiet about Australia Rallentanda or else everyone will want to come here.

  7. No please NO!!!

    our home is girt by sea
    and there abides
    a population of Rallentandas

    (that should keep them away:)

  9. Yet there are those who do precisely that: deny God's generosity. One wonders how they could...

  15. thank you Rall for this sunny poem. i can see the beautiful hibiscus and hear the waves as they hit the sandy beach just by reading your poem. it feels so livening because it's currently Fall weather here.
