Among the many
there are a few who make time

Undaunted
Among the rabble and the waste
a lavender flower
stands her ground.

Shift Work
Fireflies by night,
hummingbirds by day keep things
moving out my way.

Well Schooled
I want to learn from
my dog Knox who finds something
to enjoy each day
and doesn’t waste a moment
fretting about all that’s passed.

Fall Arrivals
The pond silently
awaits the arrival of
the migrating geese.

On This Gray Day
The clouds overhead
are still pondering whether
to let their tears fall.

After Being Away
Opening the door
to the welcoming wags of
Knox’s tail always
makes me smile as I let
his warm greeting embrace me.

Exploring The Venues
Wee hummingbird comes to the porch rail
to check what the big fuss is about
then hurries away to dine
in more colorful surroundings.

Why Hide?
Out in the open,
running here and there, that vine
proudly reveals its colors.

May We Heed His Call
Just before sunrise
when all the world is asleep,
an owl suggests we wake up.
