Bump on a Log

“Mama, if the eagle comes for us, will the turtle over there help us? He’s got a big hard shell–maybe we could hide under it.”

“No, I’m sorry my little ones; the turtle has his log, and that’s all he cares about.”

shot of the day (5/21/22)

winter came back

for a visit this morning–

she pulled a white sheet

o’er my freshly mown lawn,

and now i’m afraid to start

planting my garden

until i’m convinced

that nurse ratched is gone

Shot of the Day 5/5/22

It’s a beautiful spring day

And finally time for us

To come down out of the trees

And clamber around on the rocks

A magnificent mare poses next to what appears to be the North Pole.

Shot of the Day 2/21/22

She was trying to cheer up

Her friend across the table,

But the others got jealous,

Glances were exchanged,

And a brief scuffle ensued.

She became so incensed,

She turned her back to them,

And there they sat in silence.

It grew cold between them

And soon they drifted apart.

Obviously.

shot of the day 2/15/22

i would be sick to death

of another winter’s day

but nature’s frosty breath

still takes mine away

shot of the day 2/7/22

the

window

to the future

hangs over our heads

forever out of reach

a blank shade

lights

off
