Seattle – Carl Setzer: Word Shaper

Memories of Sunlight

as I look skyward
memories of sunlight glow
this gentle spring breeze

in this darkened sky
dominated by the murk
and the rushing clouds

glories of springtime 
graceful motion on the trees
walking in silence

feeding on sunlight 
while reaching through the green leaves 
nourished by the earth

walking through my yard 
flowers suddenly appear 
after the rain squall

passing by the shore
water's motion over sand 
seagulls shout "hello"

across the water 
the ferry's gentle motion 
before these mountains

a sunlit day 
bubbles drifting 
children's delight

memories of snow
remaining in my mind 
signs of spring emerge

quiet woods of winter 
today is filled with birdsong 
soon leaves will return
