Catalina Foothills — Image by kenne
At first glance
mountains
are on fire,
but don’t call
the fire department
to put out
late afternoon
sunlight after
a passing shower.

A Tanuri Ridge Spring Leave a comment
A Blooming Foothills Palo Verde In Tanuri Ridge (April 11, 2018, Tucson, Arizona) — Image by kenne
There is no glory in star or blossom till looked upon by a loving eye;
There is no fragrance in April breezes till breathed with joy as they wander by.

Little guy
high in the sky
I know
you see me
as I pass by
darting down
near me for a
closure look
only to quickly
move on by.

Because of a lack of winter rains,
brittlebush plants are very dry and few
are blooming this spring.

The Final Belief . . . Leave a comment

“The final belief
is to believe in a fiction,
which you know to be a fiction,
there being nothing else.
The exquisite truth
is to know that it is
a fiction and that
you believe in it willingly.”
— Wallace Stevens

Two-tailed Swallowtail Butterfly — Digital Painting by kenne
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart —
Try to love the questions themselves.
Do not now seek the answers which cannot be given
Because you would not be able to live them.
And the point is . . . To live everything.
Live the question now.
Perhaps you will then gradually (without noticing it)
Live along some distant day into the answer.”
— Rainer Maria Rilke
