almost too heavy to carry,
she was grateful for
the unsolicited gift
of a helping hand.

Sunflower seeds or
wild blackberries?
Hope birds and squirrels
choose the seeds
and leave some berries for us.

Afters
After sweltering days,
today a soft shiver –
something sweet
after the storm…

One red bird and one
blue bird share the same platform
and peacefully dine,
a feat much yearned for by some
of the red and blue humankind.

At The Snap Of A Finger
Lately the weather
has been a quick change artist,
one minute clothed in
dark, tumultuous outfits,
the next in bright, swaying garb.

A Timely Quote Reblogged From Soul Gathering
On The Other Side

crosses gravel road.
I hope he finds
what he’s looking for.

Current Events
A distant howling –
Knox pricks up his ears
but is soon distracted by
scampering squirrels, enticing sticks –
his version of the nightly news.

Fulfillment
Downpour stops.
Butterfly and hummingbird
find nectar, drink deeply.
No rainbow
Just gold.

The morning sun sings
a sparkling wakeup song.
Some rise to the occasion;
others do not.
