A Air, temperature mild, swirls my curly hair
N Noting the beautiful butterfly on the mail box
I smile
D Deep South, again cheating Winters Fury
T Tiny sprouts already appearing on my plants
I I imagine the vivid flowers and position hanging
baskets
M My phone rings and I let the answering machine
take a message
E Eager to enjoy Nature; no regret for not answering
the phone
S Steam, from my creamy coffee, floats Heavenward
T Tiny sprouts already appearing on my plants
O Olde wicker baskets I re-arrange on the patio
O Olde, full of lovely memories, baskets await bright
plants
D Dusting my hands, I enjoy my coffee
S Suddenly a hummingbird approaches the hanging feeder
T Tiny, a forceful presence of beauty and Nature
I Inhaling the sweet sugary juice and scent, she hovers
L Leaning against the post, I whisper a "Thank You" to God
L Love of Nature, nothing hazardous around, my Welcome
To My Garden sign finally again posted
