Behind the Poem - The Garden

The Garden
Through the windowI see the morning dew 
I feel your sunlight the wind chimes and birds chirp buds fill the branches 
The morning spring light nourishes the blossoming - flowers and my soul 
The breeze brings the first fragrance of freshly bloomed flowers bringing vibrant colors to the earth 
watching clouds float and shape-shift perfect for bare feet and day dreams 
I sit in silence, unmoved two little birds were chirping loudly playing in our garden chirping to their friends I hear their wings flutterand dance in the bird bath 
the flowers you water pray for you the birds you feed pray for you.
Behind the Poem

The poem wasn’t written in one sitting. It started as three haikus in response to some April prompts. In June I wrote a garden poem. I noticed one stanza had the same line as one of the haikus:
"Enjoy the little joys the breeze brings wind chimes and birdsong watching clouds float and shapeshiftperfect for bare feet and day dreams."
I edited out the above lines to remove redundancy. All the pieces had similar themes of spring and the garden that I combined it together for one longer piece.
