Rolling Hills
A hillside Orchard
Apple and Peach Trees
above Creme de menthe' green
The fruit trees reside in perfection
A natural lattice, in zig zag patterns
Carefree
Children at play
Along the Orchard's steep floor
Natural 'dips'; perfectly
aligned to collect rain water
Like the 'dips' of cool water
my Grandfather drank from
the Ladle he kept hanging
next to the sink on the
back porch
A FIXTURE, A CONSTELLATION
Just like the Big Dipper and Little Dipper
Constellations my Father pointed out to me
in the night sky.
