Like feverish and fragrant blooms, often grown in redbird's green treehouse.
Hours were spent sowing seeds, adjusting conditions, and also and pruning,
As June full moon...

Keep Growing
Break of day, silence glistens on the petals
pensive dew adorning the daisies,
roses breaking through the sun’s gaze
gesturing to the azaleas with all their blossoms
lost beyond the hues in hesitation,
a song plays as the birds serenade...

The Mirror Which Forgot Her
My mother was beautiful when I was young.
In pictures she wore pearls.
I remember her putting on sky-blue eye shadow,
Even her eyebrows beautiful,
like the Arc de Triumphe.
And her ruby brooches,
And her stain glass blouses, rhinestones glinting...

Louisiana Bayou
Wandering through the bayou,
wrapped in its eerie embrace.
Mysterious and strange--
a magical place.
Never seeming to change,
even as seasons come and go,
swampy waters ebb to and fro.
Like long-lost daughters,
gnarled courtly cypress trees
rise from black, murky waters.
Draped lovingly...

Southern Living
I moved South from Seattle's rainy haze,
To Atlanta's charm in the early 80s days.
They called me a Yankee, a foreign soul,
But Southern living soon took its toll.
Sightseeing spots, reminders of the past,
Stone Mountain, Kennesaw hills,...

Lower Alabama
A little south of Heaven
On the Gulf of Mexico
Here in the Heart of Dixie
The living's easy and slow
The weather's mostly nice here

Sunshine when it ain't raining
It's beautiful today here in L.A.
Living in L.A.

The Firefly As Metaphor
The Firefly as Metaphor
Walk in twilight
Among the flashings of fireflies
Reborn from the earth below,
From the base of tall plants, to dispel
The fears of darkness, as their
Surprising orange -quick blooms
Twinkle the night shadows
Into a joyful game...

After the Tulip Tour
The tulips and daffodils
have bloomed en masse,
in the surrounding fields.
The tourists who came to
enjoy them, have gone away.
March and April brought
excitement to our ordinarily
placid lives, but we are glad
to get back to normalcy.
May is almost...
