This blog is simply a random mess of my journal, rants, poetry, personal thoughts and things I like...and unless noted, all my original writing (no copy without permission, s'il vous plait).
I changed the name to Lost Kite from honkycackle because these days I feel more like the former than the latter.

morning
winds turn the leaves to their underbellies
and my mother's yard is green this time of year
with hints of lavender rosemary yesterday's rain
flip squirrel leftover seeds
of her thoughts hanging upside down from trees feet gripping
Hey, Holly!! I'm so glad to see you, woman! I didn't know you were posting again. I'm happy that you are.
This poem is excellent. I love the underbellies of the leaves, because "underbelly" makes me think of the soft side...the vulnerable side that gets exposed. That goes so well with the hanging upside down in the end.
How are you doing? It's great to see that no matter how busy you are, you're still writing poems. Please keep in touch when you can:)

This spring we see not the underbellies of the leaves but the buds in conflict. Wind and cold and rain. When will the sun shine.
wonderful holly!
