Tinker Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Sitting Under My Flowering PearThe gilded banter quickenswith each gust of wind.Speaking all at the same time,the restless leaves’ chatter risesand falls riding the wings of the zephyr,scents of sage, apple,and honeysuckle hitch on board.The glitter of the golden sun peeksthrough the lacy canopy to eavesdrop while I let the lyrics wash over me. ~~ Judi Van Gorder Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyv Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 This is a perfect poem, Judi. The "restless" leaves chatter, and they speak "all at the same time," but it's not cacophony. It's as if they're speaking in unison. I loved it.

JoelJosol Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 It is the wonder of creativity when we can turn what would have been a passing moment into a poem. The chatter, hitching on board, and the eavesdropping.
