pregnant rosie dines
nature’s secret in her eyes
life’s cycle unwinds
pregnant rosie dines
nature’s secret in her eyes
life’s cycle unwinds
sunlight on feathers
blue heron gleams like a gem
dazzling shades and hues
his name was rusty
orphaned by a hurricane
sad boy deeply loved
like gentle corkscrews
with playful swirls, twists, and turns
goose feathers with curls
tire chick’s proud workplace
painted old tires stacked in place
sun hat, tweety face
two birds make a tribe
their love song echos through trees
future in the nest
from the ocean’s depth
to the photographer’s hands
deep sea treasure found
nested in a tree
mama bird feeds hungry beaks
love in every tweet
i’m pretty in pink
adorning my face with grace
big nose kitchen sink
which came first they ask
chicken or egg, a debate
nature’s mystery
bushy tail, wide eyes
friendly squirrel stops, says hi
nature’s acrobat
tiny feet resting
on tree branch without a sound
all-seeing cowbird
against a brilliant
sunset in the everglades
a blue heron rests
in morning slumber
rooster guards my coffee cup
percolator clucks
a pair of herons
roosting in the wild thicket
the sound of feathers
as the free bird flies
i dream of that gift to be
my superpower
one great egret stands
among a crowd of wee birds
peering marsh water
curiosity
elegant agility
life as a house cat
a scaffold building
spider orbits his web space
this autumn evening
wet whiskers and fins
communicating, let’s play
in galapagos
fluttering around
delicate beauty and joy
butterflies are free
how elegantly
the butterfly touches down
tiny feet on pink
hurricane debris
there you were, starving skinny
precious friend, miss you
by the sea, they land
tiny feet grabbing shore sand
mating season clan
dancing dragonfly
ballerina on trapeze
twirling the clothesline
morning walk enjoyed
with sweet greetings from graceful
baby deer and mom
look into my eyes
taco cat, spell it backward
look into my eyes
meeting of the minds
two heads are better than one
or a lot of bull
little finch watches
all day from the birdhouse roof
parking lot people
please do not stir fry
or serve sliced and diced with rice
Princess prefers life
longer days of spring
sun rays, tall shadows, spellbound
meditative cat
a world of new life
dewdrops and caterpillars
looking for their home
running up and down
and hiding from fat cat joe
leadfoot lizzy lulls
the great white egret
primps his plume and pearl feathers
by the morningtide
i can see beauty
in the sleeping butterfly
the lonely artist
look-in and gaze-in
a-wait-in for the next urge
‘tween must-have cat naps
staring back at me
a cat with a white goatee
tuna breath meow
the marvelous view
soaring high, floating freely
freedom is a bird
