Sabino Canyon Mockingbird — Image by kenne
Northern mockingbird by name,
I call him Sabino Canyon
because that’s where I saw him
atop what may be a favorite
berry eating perch as evidenced by
the seed dropping beneath him.

A Sabino Canyon Morning 2 comments
A Sabino Canyon Morning — Image by kenne
The morning sun rises
over the Sabino Canyon
casting long shadows,
the ghosts of trees
mesquite by name
after years of caring
for young saguaros —
blessed are nature’s
caring ways.
