near miss

when i make pancakes
i hate it when they collide
success… a near miss 🦊❤️


flashback to grandmother’s kitchen

a shard of old china
poking up out of the ground
“danny it’s lunchtime…” 🦊❤️

 

is there a sound when a tree…?

as the clock struck two
two trees fell like dominoes
were they even heard?  🦊❤️



 

importance of roots

that towering tree
able to withstand the slope
it’s all in the roots. 🦊❤️






 

the eternal struggle…

it looked like the end…
the snake’s jaws gulped more
then the frog broke free 🦊❤️

 

nature’s way

the rays of the sun
bring to light the awesome sight
of how nature works 🦊❤️

fullness of it all

on the empty street
empty table - empty glass
waiting to be filled 🦊❤️

good things come to those who wait

days of bitterness
ever so slowly sweetened
today is the day 🦊❤️

hodge podge of bricks and mortar
scars of changing times  🦊❤️

vanishing art



on the blank canvas
the sun has left the first mark
like the clouds… it’s gone… 🦊❤️


 

mistaken identity

i thought that i found
a lost pendant on a chain
tomato - onion  🦊❤️


 

what creatures we are…

 

i look at my legs
and i couldn’t help but think
wow… how amazing  🦊❤️




sneak preview

from way up above
i look down and there i see
the long, winding trail  🦊❤️
