Contentment

Morning-lit spider webs
waving in the breeze
backlit gnats 
hover like 
ghosts.

Mulberry trees rustle
squirrels scrabble
foraging 
for last
fruits.

Dewdrops on jewelweed
glinting at sunrise
water-soaked bumblebees
sip from orange
trumpets.

Ground crickets tinkling song
droning cicadas
as backdrop
I wrap my arms
around this moment.
