But, first…
The Solstice has passed. /
Let us now speak of Summer. /
But, first, let us nap.

Haiku and photo: “Cane and me”
Cane and me
Substance or shadow, /
Science or superstition, /
Love’s dark truth, Hate’s light?

Poem and photo: “Into the Earth”
Into the Earth
The stream of color /
the leaves of sound /
the grounding of light /
into the Earth we are bound.

The music
I see a cello /
And maybe three violins. /
Flowering music.

Petals in morning. /

Light and shadows climb.

Photo finish Friday: “The Tong Dynasty”
The Tong Dynasty
King Kong and Godzilla met in a kitchen. /
King Kong heard Godzilla wailin’ and bitchin’ . /
“My toast! My toast! I can’t get it out. /
“My toast! My toast! It’s stuck in that snout. /
Every time I reach in sparks fly out. /
Angry it is!” He stomped round about. /
King Kong reached forth with bamboo tongs. /
They grabbed that toast like a pair of thongs. /
Godzilla thank Kong and went on his way. /
Thus, civilization was saved that day.

Embrace your beauty.

Across the face
Bee collects pollen /
Across the sunflower’s face. /
Heat is time rising.

Walk on the wild side
Walking sometimes wins /
Even when feathers offer flight. /
A Daedalus day.

Haiku and photo: “Roundabout light”
Roundabout light
In darkness we take /
a turn in the roundabout. /
Toward the light we give.
