Summer Morn

A magical

time of day

when all is anew

and wild daisies sparkle

with morning dew

~

Dawn

Waiting for the sun to rise

on a fresh new day

~

First Light

Mt St Helens

at her crater

in the golden light

of dawn

~

Taking Flight

Wildflowers

to be

Tiny Treasures

Demure in size

simplistic in style

Perfect

in every way

~

On a Breath of Wind

It floats down

from the skies

~

Plum Passion

A ripening

of yummy plums

~

Heavenly Scent

Lovely Charming

Honeysuckle

with a scent divine

~

Blowing in the Wind

 Beauty is

in every thing

Summer Blooms

Summer

here but for a moment

a blink of the eye

to breathe in

to dream in

to remember

for all time

~

Sky Blue Waters

Late afternoon at the lake

when the winds calm

fish nibble at the surface

and all is

peaceful

~

Wandering Wondering

Wandering paths

some unknown

but oh the wonder

of discovery

~

Talk to the Flowers

And they

will listen

~

Focusing on Simplicity

Focusing on the simpler

the slower paced

the often overlooked

important

things in life

~

Hosta Heaven

Flowing blue

flowering hosta

~

Spirally Twines

Adorned with a trio

of dainty danglers

 ~

Seeing Light

I believe in goodness

and hope

That there will always be

light

at the end of our paths

~

Reflections in Still Life

Playing with bits

of nature found

out my back door

~

Above a Sea of Fog

Witnessed a glorious sunrise

at Mt St Helens

alpine flowers carpeted the landscape

while a heavy fog 

hid the valley far below

~

Dancing with Feathers

Whispering by

By Design

Lily pads

afloat

at the wetlands

Nature made

perfection

~

Disheveled Beauty

Delicate yet wild

flowers of light

borrowed from nature

bringing pure delight

~

In a Mist of Blue

Walking the wetlands

in all weather

throughout all seasons

brings ever new

adventures

~

Hope

For the flowers

and for this beautiful world

we share with them

~

                   

Peaceful Patience

I watched

peacefully mesmerized

by the gentle swaying

of a single red bobbin

~

The Brilliance of Blue

Soft as the sky is

deep as the oceans

blue

~

Morning Mist

Ever so slowly

Coldwater Lake emerged

from under a blanket

of morning mist

~

Happy Birthday America

Proud to be

in the 

Land of the Free

~

Calm Waters

Peace Hope

Kindness

dreams

worth dreaming

Shadow Play

The sun

teasing shadows

across leaf and bough

~

Full of Bloom

The wildflowers

are abundantly blooming

glowing bright

well after the sun goes down

at Mt St Helens
