another year
treading a daily path
clearing clouds
the sun’s radiance
quickens my pace

a line of geese …
the soft chirps
of summer fading

among the chamomile
a white moth flutters

prairie smoke

this spring of pink flowers
while elsewhere
thousands flee
insatiable flames

manifesting

the ebb and flow
of wildflower species

first day of April
snowmelt. rain. every morning we step out onto a new road: frozen, muddy, puddly, dry…. I wonder what D makes of it all. How does his canine mind absorb these transformations?
spring floods . . .
how did the puddle become?
a lake

Dear Reader:
As its title suggests this post originated earlier in the month but due to a variety of factors it didn’t manage to graduate from ‘draft’ to ‘published’. Since early April we’ve had a mini summer, frost, and now it’s in between. Happy Poetry Month!
