a small flock of birds
rose from last night’s puddle in
symphonic lift-off
I raced the ground hog
and kicked his furry ass
with my longer legs
the rusty metal
with mysterious blue wires
somehow caught my eye
each image captured
proves my dominance over
mosquito forces
message from
my heart was found nailed
to a tree
advice to chipmunk
who barely avoided my wheels:
look before crossing
who can doubt
the amazing power
of green things?
raspberries
are well guarded by
leaves of three
sweet lavender vetch
interrupts the green expanse
urges me to rest
with all this beauty
surrounding, enfolding me
how could I feel sad?

I see you, Janet. I even restarted my blogspot blog thanks to you!
Thanks for stopping by Paul.
Wow, you were on a roll. Great imagery, your marriage of words and photos. Thanks!
Thanks Dave. It's a test of my powers of memory to get the inspirations while biking and just hope to remember once I get home...taking the photos helps.
I like the way you write haiku, and that's it. Photos included!!:)
Thank you so much for stopping by!
the amazing power of green things. ain't that the truth! things grow where they can, in cracks, crevices, holes, even in other green things. go ahead, just try and stop 'em.
thanks Bry...it's like when you go to the desert and in the middle of seeming lifelessness, there is a small tree or a bush or some grass. a testimony to the tenacious nature of life!
