The Pink Lady

Me thinks

Pink is her favorite color
In which, she is
So elegantly dressed.
She is the grand dame, in
Pink Sweater,
Pink skirt,
Pink coat,
Pink hose,
Pale shoes
And pink pearls clipped in her
Perfectly coifed
Champagne colored hair
And diamonds in her smile.

- Poem by: Dorothy (Alves) Holmes



Early this morning, while it was still dark, we had a wonderful shower of rain!
It sounded like music and best of all, it was Saturday and we could stay in bed a little longer and just enjoy.
We have one or two (or a few) resident frogs staying in the garden on the stoep, and even they began to 'click' along when the rain came down.
Happiness!
