A Walk By a Lake
We love to walk in the morning…we know our walk is not complete
unless we walk the way the native Americans did…
as if we’re kissing the Earth with our feet.
At home we walk to the ocean…at...

20 August 2019
The sun casting
a honey glaze
over the landscape
caressing the cool morning
hues of blue
to brilliant greens
deep and rich in tone
A scent of earthy musk
filling my lungs -
my chest heaving for
the pleasing effects
that grace such beauty
this mid-August...

Nibbles McCheesy

And scampering all round the house
Trojan the tabby was getting quite crabby
For failing to capture that mouse
That cowardy custard could not cut the mustard
The mouse was too slippery for he

Sweetest Is Their Sound
Extolling spring, oh, the robins are singing,
Lauding red-maple, bluebirds are frolicking,
There trills a cardinal fervent in courtship
Where on dogwood soulmate is gawking
And joining the symphony goldfinches fly in
Peeking from redbud, clad in blossoms pink,
Reveling...

An Early Spring Morning
It's early, as I enjoy my coffee this morning

I look outside and see a young red breasted robin
He's Jumping and dancing, his head’s busy bobbin

THE BIRDS IN MY GARDEN
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The birds in my garden, seasons decide.
Seasons decide. Hardened species abide,
Species abide, like sparrows, all seasons.
All seasons why? My alarm, good reasons.
A Robbin, probably more, who can tell?
More, who can...

Thankful
I’m thankful for the whispering winds and the gentle rain
And the absent sun on dark days, knowing it will be out again
The moonlit skies at night with twinkling stars shining bright
The change of the seasons...

Summer Delights
Summer skies are colorful delights
As fireflies light up our warm nights
The full moon shines clear and bright
A relaxing, peaceful and serene sight

Happily eating seeds and dancing about
As crows and hawks circle...

Primavera Comes
Primavera Comes
Lightly she descends--
her feet move toward us,
over the crest of the Vermont hills.
In her footsteps
spring vernal pools;
in her hair are golden
willow twigs,
tangled goldfinches
with black-barred wings
fluttering.
As she passes,
her breath...

Summer In the Meadow
Down in the meadow, bees are buzzing away
cows laze about, after feeding all day
Wildflowers attract butterflies, in pastel arrays
lapping up nectar, in the warm sunny rays
Down in the meadow, lambs frolic and play
ladybirds climb...

Invite butterflies to visit and drink their rich pollen.

An Avian Delight
From my kitchen window
I can pass a pleasant while.
Callers to my bird table
They always make me smile.
Crowds of busy sparrows
Make an early morning call.
Then appears the robin,
He likes to boss them all.
Raucous squabbling starlings,
Noisy, loud...

Early Spring
Sunshine warms the ground and melts the snow,
as colors of Spring start to glow.
Purple crocus buds peek above wet snow
as sprigs of fresh green grass sprout,
ground robins swiftly prance.
Bright Songbirds cheerily welcome Spring,
with their melodic...

Autumn Feathers
Feathers amongst fallen leaves
Spring plumage drops from the sky
Blue Jays in cobalt feathers
Proudly perched near drab fall hues
Goldfinches in olive green
Camouflaged on sparse branches
Raptors hungry and hunting
Autumn feathers masked from sight
Cardinals perched on red fronds
Their...
