swerving
through the curves
the wind sings

neighborhood of colors
Carpe Diem #1263 neighborhood of colors After living for many decades in locations a little too monochrome in their occupants, I am pleased to be living in an apartment complex populated by a wide spectrum of colors and tones. What joy to look up while on a walk to see someone who looks nothing like a 70 year old white woman. To see the young mother in her hijab walking with her children. To hear the rhythm of a different language floating across the pool. To see the sun set profiling the gay couple as they embrace. Yes, I am loving this neighborhood of colors. jewels glisten at sunset © petra domina Thanks to Chèvrefeuille for daily prompts on CARPE DIEM HAIKU KAI
