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

Where the Petals Fall

The slightest breeze
and down they fell
still so vibrant
in pinks and white
these peony petals
now sprinkled on the ground

In my garden of pink
roses and peonies
intertwined
this little leaf rested
saying in a quiet hush
remember me

Mt St Helens on Her Anniversary

On May 18, 1980 
Mt St Helens violently erupted
We live in her shadow
and in an unexplainable way
made her our own

Wildflower Tales

Scrunch down low
and you just might hear
tales told in soft whispers
of fairies pixies and sprites
who come play on their petals
and take shelter from
 afternoon rains

Among the Many

Everywhere
there are Rhododendrons
bursting with color
So numerous
their charm and beauty
often get
lost in the crowd
