PAD Challenge Day 2: For today’s prompt, write a secret poem.
Paint Tins;
they don't say much
just sit there waiting
for tint and brush
and a world of creating
Vegetables;
quiet creatures, they are
and quite ordinary-looking
waiting to be supper-stars
with blending, baking, cooking
Seeds;
the face of a seed does not draw
exclamation
but oh, not so after we plant and wait...
for God's creation
Pen;
he only tells what we permit
and spells what we allow
and what remains the rest of it
no one will ever know
This is a lovely day to discover
and uncover
what might otherwise remain
a secret
Happy April 2nd!

DeleteWhat a smashing sideboard redo!
ReplyDeleteAnd love the day-to-day tableaus interspersed with verse.
Especially like the staged harvest trugs - creates a celebration out of what could just be work.
Thank for sharing!
thank-you...It always astonishes me what a little paint can do:) I was so apprehensive about the color red but I love it too! The palette in my home is mostly earth-tones and I think it needed a kick of red!
Delete...the veggie pics make me eager to get dirt beneath my nails again...its been a cold while since those shots were taken. We're still struggling to stay above freezing here.
