Hello, dear blog friends!
With all the noise surrounding us, nature becomes a respite. It doesn't matter where we live. If there's a tree somewhere, we can find peace. And, if we've a four-legged friend, our day can be magical. Don't you agree?
This week, Melissa Lemay invites folks to write a lai poem for Tanka Tuesday. Never heard of this poetry form? If not, just know it's a first for me so you're not alone. A lai is a nine-line poem of 552-552-552 syllables and a rhyming scheme of aab-aab-aab.
My contribution tries to capture summer days. I hope you enjoy it.

I hope you have a wonderful week. I'm excited, because I'll be with four of my sibs this weekend. We always reminisce about our shenanigans on the farm and share stories of our kids and grandkids. Simple pleasures fill the heart, don't they. ❤️ We all need more of them.
