North: GREEN REEDS
river of #greenreeds
the water flows so sluggish
they make it all pure
South: MITTENS
snow on fingertips
they make my hands very cold
#mittens seal the warmth
North: GREEN REEDS
river of #greenreeds
the water flows so sluggish
they make it all pure
South: MITTENS
snow on fingertips
they make my hands very cold
#mittens seal the warmth
mallard feathers
adding a new dimension
to green reeds
Deep in the green reeds
The mallard guards her ducklings
Beware the heron!
North: WITHERED REEDS
blazing summer heat
#Witheredreeds at the lakeshore
water all dried up
South: GREEN REEDS
so the spring storms come
the shoots of #greenreeds come back
drink deep of water
Symphony of birds
Sheltered in the marshes. Sway
To the green reeds' song
