I'm a free spirited aging hippie
who loves talking to flowers, chasing rainbows
and photographing all the beauty that surrounds us
Thanks for taking a peek into my little world

I Can Fly

I can fly

if I close my eyes
to see the sky

Hiking About

I get euphoric
in a beautiful forest
 
To the right of that cliff
is this waterfall
 
 
It was well worth the climb
the misstep
and the bruises
that followed
( but I saved my camera
from destruction )
 
It was a perfect day

Off the Beaten Path

Took a side road
off a side road
off a side road
 
As I stood there in total bliss
I felt the earth start to shake
Out of the shadows
came great big Porky
To greet us
or eat us
we didn't hang around to find out

Watching and Waiting

Washington State
has the greatest number of UFO sightings
in the USA
 
When they finally land
I'll give them
a poppy
