and this year on a Friday....

June BugFlying crazed into the summer night
Diving, crashing — what a sight!
The people, they shriek;
Cover they seek,
Slapped in the face by one’s flight.

DREAMThey came to visit me in my dream, telling me that they are everywhere, but no one can see them.
They are like stardust, able to move in the wind just like particles.
They live on different planets, and explained a little of their life above and around.
They are nice and very smart; they talked...

a green June bug came whirring,
to our living room~
my smart cat after playing,
gulped down this hapless victim.

June Bug
My little cousin, Junior, lost his mom when she was only 39 and he was 9. It was such a devastating time for him – her pet name for Junior was “June Bug”
Junior had a beautiful mom
Unlike any other
Never knew a heart so calm
Ever the amazing mother!
Blessed by her light, her sacrifice
Unending grace beyond a...

The Cost of Closeness
It’s hard to tell if they’re playing tag,
or thrusting nectar-drunk love at each other—
mid-June attempts at getting it.
Maybe they’re fighting over first flowers—
legs twitching in hypoglycemic half-paralysis,
like the buzz of waking mid-vacation,
still dazed, muscles aching, but that stinger,
coiled stiff for the week.
Their terror-tails would end me,
or at least suspend me, breath held between
here and...

The Mosquito SquadAt last, Summertime is finally here.
It's time to put away our winter gear;
Show some skin and have a little fun
While soaking up the warm summer sun.
But unbeknownst to you and me
Is a treacherous insect far worse than a bee.
The mosquito lurks beneath the shadows,
Waiting to eat people's legs, arms, and toes.
Yes, this critter has...

June whispers secretsIn a gentle slumber, where the moon takes flight,
I lay my dreams next to her this tender night
June whispers secrets, in a voice so sweet,
A symphony of stars, a lullaby complete
Underneath her breath, a hush so deep,
Where shadows dance with every leaf
Her eyes, like tangerines, aglow with light,
Seeking answers in the endless night
She wanders through...

June's AstronautJune's Astronaut
He claws and scrapes
Letting out something of a growl
Stills time stills all attempts and quests for normal thefts
May is gone
Life becomes June
Young trees reaching further and further everyday
Wild fires burn their pros and cons protect nothing except energy
Here comes the wind
Flames themselves free
They aren't of yesterday's creed
They have a beat
Ill tell you where...

About black magicOne evening, BB and I sat on the couch,
We talked about many topics including black magic.
The voodoo, curses and dirty tricks.
You were calm and listening,
When I told you I was born
With some basic strange energy.
Premonitions and having visions were some.
Able to predict what happened next was another.
I never want to be trained, or became...

Far Far Away from the Madding CrowdUpon green hills where gentle breezes play,
A village wakes to greet the golden light.
No city horns disturb the break of day,
Just birds that sing and skies serenely bright.
The air is crisp, each breath a gift so pure,
With streams that babble secrets as they run.
Life moves in rhythms peaceful and demure,
Unhurried hours beneath the warming sun.
Fields...

JUNE BERRIES
Juicy and sweet, these berries delight,
Unique flavor with a hint of almond's bite.
Native to North America's land,
Eaten fresh or dried, both are grand.
Baked into pies or made into jam,
Enjoyed in wines, a treat for the fam.
Rosy bronze leaves in spring's embrace,
Rich in nutrients, a healthful grace.
Indigenous peoples cherished them so,
Essential vitamins they bestow.
Saskatoon berries, nature's...
