Sunny Day

sunny-day

The gardener’s taken ill
The flowers in disarray
The spade’s a trifle heavy
But it is a sunny day

The butler’s leg is broken
No one to serve a tray
The door’s going unanswered
But it is a sunny day

The milkmaid has eloped
After a romp in the hay
The pitcher is unfilled
Clouds are getting in the way

The master’s late for dinner
He’s gone far astray
Thunder rumbles overhead
Day is looking rather gray

  1. Poetry is lovely and the photo is absolutely stunning

  2. I like your poem! :)
    I have to admit that sunny days bother me a bit, but I can’t deny the beauty of a sunny day. ^_^

  3. I like the progression in your poem. Not a happy one, but then so much of the time that’s how it goes in life, right?
    Loved the watercolor too.

    • I don’t know……look at it in a positive sunlight:

      The spoiled little b – - – - will probably have to do a little work around the place for once. Like it would really hurt her to get her hand in the soil, make her own tea and milk the cows.

      Who knows while she is in the barn she might meet somebody up in the hay loft besides that rat of a wandering husband. lol

      I see the sun peaking back out of the clouds. :)

  4. Love this one! It is gray here today so you have given me a splash of sunshine to start the day! :-)

  5. Who is left to help with everyone either gone or late?

  7. Care free are the days of sun. I’m feeling the gray in my bones. Thank you for a bright reminder.

A "Hi" is OK!
