Misty Memories

 

sunset’s

powerful waves roll in -

misty memories

Singing the Blues

 

birdsong orchestrates

movements of the morning clouds -

singing the blues

Ghosts Gather

 

heavy grey fog  

shrouds the long pier  

ghosts gather  

Miles Apart

 

girlfriends  

many miles apart  

hearts still touch 

Blue Heron

 

palm trees

waft in the evening breeze -

blue heron

Slept Through Morning Tide

 

slept through morning tide

sunlight called for a still life -

never enough

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

Every Photo is ...

 

every photo

is a self-portrait of

oneself
