2019, Quebec, near Wakefield
A serene farm

Searching for Monarch caterpillars in milkweed

A neighbor invited me for a swim: warm above, cold below



2017, CA
View from Griffith Observatory

Penultimate day,
Cuddling with moppets before
Cleaning and packing.

Trying out the pano with a Chaco Canyon Sunset. Must have taken it in Sept 2016?
2015

A lovely evening
For a stroll, with a cool breeze
And luminous light.

Yesterday's walk...
It's so still, I hear
Air whoosh with each slow wing beat.
I'm moving chi too.

2014
The hummingbirds buzz;
A mosquito whines softly.
The sky is silent.



2012
The nectar level
Goes down, but no birds are seen.
Evaporation?

The tart crunchiness
Of the homegrown tomato
Bursting in my mouth.

He says, "It's great that
There's a fundraising car wash
Every weekend."

It scurries across
The street and I recognize
My first roadrunner.
