beauty is still beauty
nature’s art
Nature
A favorite tulip
Between raindrops from the sky
Finally, Spring



After the snow and rain and flooded fields
the sunlight returned . . .
and the winds

Water in the air




The cotoneaster leaves have finally appeared in the midst of this stormy springtime rain. The grass is greening, and two clumps of blue wild flax plants have emerged among the plumping tulip bulbs. I thought for a while that Spring would not displace Winter, this year.
Butterfly prayers

resting upside down
wings folded…

Melting Snow

snow flurries
no longer melting as snowflakes
cover the ground
Snow under grass

When is it too cold to snow? It’s too cold for taking photographs outside without swapping out my moccasins for snow boots.

a squirrel in the window
stares at me
I know it will disappear
when sunlight warms the glass
