A sudden dust genie along the road skipping.
Wild white horses from lake to sandy shore leaping.
Spring cloud shadow over a mountain ridge climbing.
The leaves rustle in the poplars the way lining.
Rain drops from a sun-shower slowly falling.
Bright summer sun-light on the lake surface sparkling.
The one fluffy white cloud across the sky floating.
The faintest breeze through the barley crop rippling.
Ephemeral wisps of mist warm earth releasing.
Morning fog around the sleeping hillocks rolling.

Transient, in the grand scheme of things fleeting
But in each moment, present perfect remaining.
