Existence
While trying to catch your elusive image, I caught a piece of time. That moment, frozen forever, when you stopped long enough for me to crouch by the yellow flowers. That one tiny moment, otherwise gone, but for this fleeting proof of your existence and of mine.

Bees
The bees move about the flowers and into a nearby hive.
I watch them and I imagine them watching me.
Bee Conversation:
“Is she still sitting there?”
“Yea, she hasn’t moved.”
“Just ignore her and she’ll go away.”
Moments
Moments rest upon the backs of dragonflies
stepping gingerly on wet weeds–
waiting for insects, a soft breeze or spontaneous inspiration.
Insects of Summer
Tiny artful creature–
where are you now?
All of us
Although our journeys may vary,
the mountains we climb bring us together.
Wings
If we had wings, would we know how to fly?
The current
Barges and mallards,
herons and mayflies,
grey geese and thistles
follow the river against the current.
They make it look so easy.
