One Summer Day (String of haiku/senryu)

The silvery beams
Of the afternoon sunlight
Glow in a soft stream

It pierce the small gaps
Between the leaves refracting
Rays in hues of gold

I wish time stand still
While I sit and watch life moves
And flows around me

As life spreads her wand
On this warm bright sunlit day
To create magic

I tune my senses
To her soft subtle stirring
As the day moves on

The soft breeze blowing
Ruffling the leaves on the trees
Into gentle swaying

Birds in trees tweeting
Calling in clear sweet voices
On a sleepy day

Butterflies flitting
From grass to flowers to trees
Their wings fluttering

In a little while
The sun will set before me
Crossing the sea

To rise up again
In another horizon
In a different sky

Leaving me waiting
For the night to cover me
As I lay dreaming

And the moon will shine
Spilling luminous moonbeams
Lighting lonely night
