on calm summer nights

the sea of tranquility

lives up to its name

 

–photo by me

whether dragonflies

bring us beauty or terror

depends on our size

 

–photo by me

the shows are dazzling

with all-star casts each night on

the galactic plane

 

–photo by me

dragonfly squadrons

flying mosquito patrols

are a welcome sight

 

–photo by me

slow, winding creeks carve

the wooded lowlands into

locked puzzle pieces

 

–photo by me

on nature’s palette

sky blue and sun yellow are

mixed to make grass green

 

pieces of winter

are caught with nowhere to hide

beneath a spring moon
