sipping sweetness
from the false foxglove
mocktails in the afternoon
What’s That?
and curious
about the world
Repose
his soul already
flown to heaven

#leafandtwig
#repose
Rendezvous
at the base of the tree
their love renewed each spring
Duty
guarding the feeder
as dawn wakes the day
All Wet
embrace water
from above and below
Gravity
of a nest
built on a slope
Breakfast
a quiet feast
high in the willow tree
The Watcher
of all things
unmasking mysteries
Bluebird So Soft
bright eyed
in a blue sky
hope personified
The Goldfinch
to the feeder
bright as a daffodil
Mourning Doves In The Afternoon
it’s much too soon
to start a nest dear
it always snows in April
Sure Sign
robin’s red breasts
against a bright blue sky
spring arrives on wings
Soaring
to see
the wild and free
is release
Chickadee
a passerine
pausing
while passing by
Midnight Snack
Solitude
I gave
my heart to nature
now I am never alone
Redhead In The Rhythm Section
a fixed concentration
on the syncopation
of sustenance seeking
Swoop
into flight
the darting and diving
of feathered days
Cardinal
sighting you
brings delight
as deep as your color
Which Way?
decisions
in the rafter
made by consensus
On The Last Day Of The Year
looking into
the setting sun
farewell to the past
Eyewitness
taking in the scene
the season’s change
to brown from green
Largess Of Life Force
emanating energy
even
in stillness
Savor The Day
some summer fun
cooling off the hooves
while strolling the brook
At The Edge
listening
to the purple
echos
In The Enormous Woods There Perches A Tiny Soul
feathered emerald
the size
of a birch leaf
Fledgling
first flight
first landing
parents made proud
Skipper
stay close
there are dangers
in the delicious garden
Last One In
propelled
by Mom’s encouragement
first swim
