Here’s a quadrille for dVerse Poets and Bjorn’s “bliss”ful prompt… it’s supposed to be heart-shaped but looks more like a carrot!
anniversary weekend
sunshine follows rainstorms
bike paths through tunneled shade
relax to rediscover love’s secrets
playful conversation answers
companionable silence, sit
touching, fingers entwine
between sips of wine
live band remembers
soul sways to tunes
breathe and listen
heartbeats in
syncopation
of wedded
bliss

Hearty congrats again to you and your hubby! Be it a carrot or a diamond, it’s my favourite from you. “Companionable silence” speaks volume: I miss that most now that we have in our house two little monkeys and a newborn — and subsequently their incessant clamour. Oh, well…

It looks like a long diamond to me. 🙂 But that carrot comment cracked me up!
I am swooning over this:
“bike paths through tunneled shade

So glad you liked it…or maybe it’s an ear of corn since we raise that grain crop.
