Resistance is futile

Yes, I am a stray. /

Feeding me is encouraged. /

Petting discouraged.

Haiku and photo: “What will we be?”

What will we be?

Will the stream live or /

Be a memory dump of things /

When we are gone?

The sign

A sign of the times /

Keep your clothes on is not /

Just an expression.

Feel the foot bridge sway. /

Swollen creek rushes your way. /

Your ears do not stray.

Water bubbles

Upon the Spring petals /

New raindrops run and dangle, /

Nourishing old hopes.

Sweet Heat

Sweet heat of Jesus /

Tastes full-bodied on your tongue /

Olympic rings

Golden, deep fat fried, /
