Bee On Mexican Hat Wildflower — Image by kenne
A honey bee drifts down,
settling into the dark cone
of the Mexican Hat,
petals flaring red and yellow
like a flamenco dress in wind.
In the Arizona White Mountains
clouds move in slow herds,
shadows sliding across meadows—
but here, the flower holds still,
a small sun drawing sweetness.
The bee works methodically,
gold dust clinging to its legs,
while the mountains breathe
their cool late-summer air,
silence beneath a shifting sky.

Honey bee at work,
Mexican Hat in full flame—
mountains breathe in light.

“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.”

Mexican Hat Wildflower — Photo-Artistry by kenne
Every person passing through this life will unknowingly
leave something and take something away. Most of this
“something” cannot be seen or heard or numbered or
scientifically detected or counted. It’s what we leave in
the minds of other people and what they leave in ours.
Memory. The census doesn’t count it. Nothing counts
without it.

It seems long ago
wildflowers lined mountain trails
now winter abounds.
