“Hope”

Hope

The Hail Mary here /

Is neither pass nor prayer /

But hope for the creek.

“Horses”

Horses

Abandoned horses /

Rusted metal, squeaky wheels /

Corralled for new home.

Haiku and photo: “The Greenway”

The Greenway

The Greenway awaits /

Your friends and neighbors do, too /

Kindness blooms anew.

Photo finish Friday (and haiku): “Spring roll”

Spring cleaning rolls out  /

the presence of memories, /

Christmas tree, and trash.

Photo finish Friday: “Pitch in”

It takes a village to mulch a park.

It takes a village to mulch a park.

Pick up a pitch fork and come pitch in.
Bring a rake — we’ll show where to begin.
Bring a wheelbarrow to move stuff around;
there are weeds to pull and mulch to lay down.
From 2 to 4 come down to ONK park.
We’ll work some, but not up to dark.
Stop by on Sunday with your pair of gloves
and show this little park a lot of love.

Jesus redeemed

Jesus redeemed

In redeeming even a small part of the Earth, we redeem ourselves.

Jesus tossed among /
the trash in the creek; redeemed /
by a boy: Earth Day.
