Harmony on the Fence

harmony

 

fortissimo pink glissando
cascading down latticework staff
diminuendo
dolcissimo

petals flitter like grace notes
adorning summer’s breeze
delicato
pianissimo

green tenor leaves support
contralto blossoms
sustenuto
spianato

vines tie blooms across
vinyl bars and wire measures
en tranquillo
largo
tempo


The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: Harmony

If Only

If I only had wings, 
I tell myself longingly,
I could explore so many new places,
savor so many new sights,
immerse myself in so many
new adventures.

Yes, I muse,
sighing as I sink further
into the soft cushions of the 
well-worn couch,
propping my perfectly functional feet
onto the matching well-worn ottoman.
If I only had wings...
