Breach

blue-grey mist
hovers in the forest

red cardinal

 

 

Mesmerized

sun slips below horizon
ghostly silver-white glow
on jet black bark

 

 

Afternoon Heat

blood red oleander blossoms
against a pale blue sky

I want to weep

 

Sunlit Wildness

periwinkle violets
shimmer in verdant grass

a riot of tiny yellow buttercups
vie with golden dandelion bols

close up, tiny white and mauve
floweretts fill the field

ferns create an edge
between lawn and forest

 

Treachery

no Camus for me
sense and order
let there be
