Bee On Fairy Duster — Image by kenne
Fine threads catch the sun,
one bee stitching through the pink—
air holds every move.

One bee, one flower—
the wind forgets where it goes,
poppy does not care.

Fiddleneck bends low,
one bee gathers morning light—
petals do not mind.

Fiddlenecks arise,
tiny curls of yellow flame
dancing through dry grass.

Petals in soft squares,
spring arranged in patchwork light—
blossoms held in frame.

Desert wakes in bloom—
colors spill on silent sand,
spring sings without rain.

Brown wings, pointed face—
brief visitor on the breeze,
gone before hello.

Lupine Blue on Bigelow’s Bristlehead — Image by kenne
Radiating out of the darkness
on a desert spring morning
stars on the ground replacing
the stars in the clear desert sky
evidence there is heaven on earth.

The only wisdom we can hope to acquire
Is the wisdom of humility: humility is endless.

“here’s the thing about wildflowers
they take root wherever they are
grow strong through the wind, rain, pain,
sunshine, blue skies and starless nights
they dance, even when it seems there
is nothing worth dancing for they bloom
with or without you”

Wildflower
I found you in the desert
And in the murky gulch
Through the trees
And in between
The mountains’ ivory clutch
Wildflower
I’ve put you in my home
And my faucet is the draught
With which you drink
Like river stream
And early morning trout
Wildflower
I have made a mistake
You grow on hills
Where we don’t stay
But in my house
What saves now kills
Wildflower
I let you go

Rusted old medal
Junco sees it as a perch
Still has a function.
