damp



greeting the

unfamiliar greens

of Portland


look closely

there's a universe

in the moss


shiny crows

ignore me as they

peck at grass


the sky spits
shades of silver gray

now I'm damp

Hi Janet,

Lovely set, all

i specifically liked:

look closely

and "the sky spiting shades of silver gray" --

A terrific imagery, Janet :)

wishes,

Larry, thanks for the link! I drove over that bridge just yesterday. fun:-)

Devika, the green of Portland, has so many variations, it's like a rainbow unto itself...wet and beautiful.
