Finding the Middle


The middle:
the point
in between.

2016




Some pictures come with a cost.
Raising one's camera for the right angle
with a suspicious-minded neighbor nearby
ends with interrogation.

Oh...
our first-world problems.

to be told what to do.

Early Morning Colors


A flood of early
morning color
fill the blue sky.

brain's minutia.

2015


Many walk, bike, or drive by this view
without ever seeing it.

It's hidden, tucked-away.

If you don't look left
at just the right time,
you'll pass it too.

along the

to touch the sun.

Grass Carpet


Classic wheels
sit on a carpet
of grass.

What is the hope of the pine-tree
is but the beginnings of allergies.
Oh pollen, if only you could stay put.

run across the valley.

Mother Nature is so fickle.

along the fence-line.

a spiral stairway to heaven.

invade new growth.

seems to glow
much like the sun
behind the cross
and bell.

of an inverted lightning bolt or magic wand.

Like a flying bird
this flower extends
its pedals.

2015



The passing of a cold spring storm
leaves bands of snow and color.
