Driving through Paradise
our hearts
are heavy
***
Sunshine
illuminates
robin's red chest~glowing
***
Laundry dances merrily
achy frozen fingers
thawing by the stove
***
Slowly sailing vortex high
rafts of buzzards
mere black dots in the sky
***
Windy day
lone bee sips
from a violet's heart
***
Sipping peach juice
from a Chinese rice bowl
translucent rice pattern
like a night sky filled with stars
tipping back savoring one last drop
Lemon Sponge Pie
delights the eye
too hot to cut
it's making me sigh
***
High up in the oaks
jubilant robin chorus
greets a new day
***
Rose gold morning magic
Bald Eagle sails with buzzards
rising sun gilds snowy white tail
setting Luna glows~Snow Moon magic
Winter sunshine
colorful rays fill even empty jars
deep golden honey glows
***
Words appear
and disappear at will
determined to catch them
Morning pearl moon
little frog worships quietly
at her silvery feet
***
Eating my solitary lunch
at our little table suddenly too big
deep silence broken only by
dog sighs and snuffles
occasionally a low sad moan
he’ll be back in a few days time
after visiting his ailing sister
but still we miss his presence
this temporary separation an
unsettled view into a solitary future
if nothing else a reminder
to savor all the years yet given to us
Early morning crescent
floats in a pale blue sea sky
just out of reach
Glistening they rise
from last year’s debris
royal purple beauty
Oak Henge Hearth
fiercely crackles to life
warming my hands oh the bliss
fallen oak gives comfort gives heat
morning chill lifts as the flames dance merrily
Stepping outside
into the morning sun
getting my groove back
gazing into this bowl of purple
small yellow centers cheerfully smile up at me
