Blossoms and Butterflies
In Sabino Canyon with a group of kids
someone spotted a butterfly flying by
suddenly landing on a nearby wildflower
attracting our attention as a progression
of butterflies began to fill space around us —
smiles and pleasure with the moment.

Various Outposts

with the mystery — fire-torn, insulated leaves,
