the ducklings have grown
their limpid pond has turned green–
the dog star rises
–photo by me

fresh black-eyed susans–
each wanting to tell her own
side of the story
–photo by me

a songbird sings out–
and makes the weary world
seem all right again

nature’s abstract art
on exhibit at the beach
in driftwood displays
–photo by me

little ponds provide
lily pad parasols for
sunbathing sunfish

odd assortments of
faithful fans line the forest’s
carpeted runways
–photo by me

mouth of the river–
ever agape with wonder
at the open sea
–photo by me

morning sun so bright
it’s threatening to ignite
the smoldering trees
–photo by me

conifer coiffure–
forest green spikes with frosted
highlights are trending
–photo by me

in the pine forest
a white blank canvas awaits
spring’s water colors
