Good Evenin'

To sit with you in sweet content

As flinging food you cause the koi

To splash about  with open mouths

While we sip wine and watch the clouds

Boil across the setting sun

Another evening has begun

This time we spend is all I wish

That time to feed the fish.

And yet

We still have more to do

The humming birds are gathering

to battle for their food

Another glass of wine perhaps

While we're still in the mood

Just another day in Barbara's eden

Such a beautiful picture of words .. oh my! That's where we should all be at the end of a day, calm and just - well, happy to be alive.

Wonderful, peaceful.

nice! "While we sip wine and watch the clouds
Boil across the setting sun" - love the idea of the clouds boiling across the sun - like smoke - very apposite - and the idea of the hummingbirds preparing for battle was very pleasing - great write!
