Forgotten Raindrops


petal's graceful arc
as the sunlight passes through
forgotten raindrops

The Delight Of Bees

Mock Orange Blossoms

summer breezes
the delight of bees
and hummingbirds

Early morning

dawn drifts through the trees
gently rousing the songbirds
early morning dew

The Joy Of A Rose


the joy of a rose
beside the white, picket fence
greeting summertime

Hummingbird Delights

Summer flower

boisterous life 
vibrance of summertime
hummingbird's delights

The Grace Of Her Dreams


under the sunlight 
flowers reaching for the sky
the grace of her dreams

Bees Speak In Code

the bees speak in code
can we hope to understand
secrets of petals?

The bees keep working

Honey bees at work

Through the intense sun

And air choked with smoke moving

The bees keep working

The air in the greater Seattle has been filled with the smoke of many fires. Carried by the wind miles, a gift to be choked, I guess. The bees seem unperturbed.

Seattle Smoke

Smoky skies in Seattle, September 8, 2020

in this morning air
destructive rage blowing west
the sepia sky

The featured image is out my front door, trying to capture the smoky haze that’s descended upon Seattle. My lungs hurt a bit, my eyes sting, and I feel for my asthmatic friends and the misery they’re going through.
