Goldenrod Gone By

in the cold
old blooms
imitate snow

Dahlias In The Background

bookends of summer
monarchs on
Buddleia

First One Bloom Then…

like ripples on a pond
the blooms go on and on

Amongst The Blooms The Wing-ed Ones

beyond the porch rail
butterfly and hummingbird
make their morning rounds

Cardinal In The Forsythia

he stops by
to encourage
the first blooms

Chosen By Light

the sun’s light
shifts towards spring
expired blooms bloom again

Step Inside The Outside

winter’s
daydream
has arrived
