this summer i have met
a handful, a rather large handful,
of marvelous people
one of these
therese
sent me a wonderful momento
that includes dear aimee, too
a gifted vellum piece
that will become another of the hortus siccus books
beckons
and while walking
three bees
involved in something i don't understand
a road killed flicker
beautiful,
i moved off the road.
a failed family
at the new place
morning dew/fog
another one soaking up heat from the tarmac,
but i moved
so it would be chilly in the cool wet grass
but alive
late august morning
such beauty
leaves gathered here
sugar maple sustains in so many ways
and this small leaf
both showing
autumn's touch.
labor day weekend.
hannah's birthday.
the end of summer.
