the lawn mower roars

back and forth across our yard

to show love in action

.

.

the dishes clatter

in their cleansing bubble bath

to show love in action

.

.

Happy Anniversary.

waving their limbs and swirling

 to a summer song.

A violet bird sits
in her nest in the arbor,
filling sky with song
