Misty Memories

 



sunset’s
powerful waves roll in -
misty memories

Singing the Blues

 




birdsong orchestrates
movements of the morning clouds -
singing the blues

Civil War Ghosts



civil war ghosts
in tree-lined battlefields
beauty above the bones

Visited Shiloh Mississippi, USA site of Civil War battles.

After watching their documentary film, it's easy to imagine the fighting.

But I was pleasantly surprised at the patches of spring daffodils in bloom.

Happiness Is ...

 
poetry books
fill the traveler's suitcase
happy trails

***
happiness found
as vacation begins or
homeward bound

****

kitty cat
gets hugs and kisses
as mom drives away

*****
virtual hugs
around the world to
poetic Valentines


Hands Are Full

  petrichor   heavy in the air   fills our hands
