“All’s Right Nothing’s Wrong”

A dew-dropped rose
a newly born fawn
twilight before dawn
all’s right nothing’s wrong

The sky is painted
from our star below
day begins
the flight of the Crow
it’s time for Nature to get up and go

The Sun warms Earth
it feeds the trees
flower to flower
collecting pollen the bees

High noon hits
head to shade
replenish the fluid
so one won’t fade

Light’s angle changes
let the coolness begin
murmuration of starlings
waves go out then come in

Day moves on
survivors lucky or strong
crickets take stage
with a chorus of song

Sun sets below
stars and Moon aglow
all’s right nothing’s wrong

-C. H. Eldridge
