Saturday afternoon
time in my study
with a library book
growth over time
and blessings every day

This post reprints Summer Haiku by Carol Purington, our post from June 24, 2017.
The scent of roses
heavy on the fading light
a hummingbird moth
Porch conversation
the fluent geometries
of a spider
In time
with the hammock’s sway
the storyteller’s pauses
A heron tows its legs
toward sunset
and a child skips indoors
Carol Purington, 1949-2020
