October 17, 2015 - Under The Orange Umbrella

UNDER THE ORANGE UMBRELLA

Under the orange umbrella
with busy squirrels
and tired bees
there is shelter still.
Wispy white clouds
floating by like creamsicles
mixing with the orange
a sweet treat for the bees.
The squirrels stash their nuts
and cats wait to pounce
on songbirds devouring seeds
happy in the fleeting remnants
their home now flying piece by piece
into the wind.

Under the orange umbrella.
