Stray reaches out

contact is made

A wounded stray appeared
Gumpy's replacement

Not sure what ails this
lovely Lynx PointSiamese
head always a-tilt as if inquiring
We don't know what happened
but we'll see it through
gaining her trust~kind words, furtive touches
Rescue Remedy in every meal
today she emerged briefly out of hiding
explored~looked at the fish
then fled, back to her hidey hole
she sees the bowls in my hand
gives a faint meow~ first words
nose pokes out, she peers up, head a-tilt
scanning for danger~then slowly
approaching the dishes, watching me
gulping her food~ slurping the milk
Ming-Ming will be her name
we'll keep her because few
want damaged goods so she'll
be ours~ filling an empty space
I guess Gumpy must have send her
knowing she'll be in good hands here..

It's barely June
already we feel Summer's hot breath
Celestial dragon exhaling
scorching Spring's green
leaving rosebuds crisp
never to unfold and delight

Yet we count our blessings
we do not have to watch the sky
for tornadoes bringing death
nor floods washing us and ours away
our enemy is Fire Dragon
one careless spark is all it takes


June 3rd, 2013

Gilded morning sunlight
spills into the canyon
birdsong fills the air




June 4th, 2013

Blue~eyed
Silky head~butts
delighted twitchy tail
Ming~Ming's warm morning greeting
TRUST



June 5th, 2013


Silvery spheres
alive with bees
onions gone to seed

June 6th, 2013

Blackbirds flying by the hundreds
First appearing like wisps of smoke
then turning~transforming
into a black lace mantilla
undulating in a pale blue sky

Merciless sun
bakes everything
beneath it

Stone #2

SUN ~ giver of life and light
today turned vengeful golden goddess
we bow to her power and shield our eyes
against her savage rays~yearning for sunset



June 9th, 2013

This morning
a paler, kinder sun rises
cool air greets us
we breathe deeply
Day Lily opens
her golden heart joyfully
~
Minimal Monday

Golden heart
we smile
