Obsession

 

A mystical rose

leads to endless enchantment

as love at first sight

Lazy daisy

 

A lazy daisy

Avoiding the summer heat

with carbon offsets

Summer sun

 

Stark summer sunlight

brings a new reality

to our garden blooms

Circles

 

Running in circles

doesn't get you anywhere

next time try straight lines

Fleeting beauty

 

Only for a day

for all beauty is fleeting

make the most of yours

Galactica

 

Our own milky way

stretching across the cosmos

awaiting the dawn

A wink and a nod

 

With a wink and nod

we often agree to things

we know we shouldn't

Rush

 

As life rushes by

at ever increasing speeds

Sit back and enjoy

the rapidly passing view

The ride will end soon enough

Summer soltice

 

From darkness to light

From action to nourishment

The summer solstice

Shy and retiring

 

Shy and retiring

youngsters and old folk alike

just different reasons

Spring surrender

 

As spring surrenders

To a summer's red hot heat

blame global warming

Restful energy

 

With grace through the years

calling on restful energy

sweet magnolia

Early morning light

 

With a gentle nudge

we awaken from slumber

early morning light

Climbing

 

The higher you climb

the more you are criticized

don't let that stop you

Ageless beauty

 

Across the ages

there is beauty around you

just open your eyes

Innocence

 

Artfully playful

while unable to commit

a true ingenue

Inner fire

 

There's an inner fire

in every one of us

that needs proper stoking

Morning rain

 

Early morning rain

dampens the lily's petals

but not her spirit

Blissful

 

Blissfully serene

Content with all that life brings

Except a late frost

A spring song

 

Up from their slumber

cicadas emerge singing

of a change in life

Eternity

 

Past present future

Depends on your reference frame

it's time without end

Finding shelter

 

Clouds in the distance

it's time to seek some shelter

rain is on the way

Mystical

 

Altered consciousness

enigmatic and obscure

like love at first sight

 

Freedom

 

Peace and forgiveness

we could use a little now

it will set us free
