A late morning storm...
Flashes of lightning, thunder...
The dog is hiding.

29 June 2014
The sun shines brightly;
In the west, massive, looming clouds.
Today's metaphor?

Rain pours off the roof..
Abruptly, the sun appears,
The thunder continues.

26 June 2014
Floating above me,
Clouds, like pillows, beckoning
Me to drift to sleep.

(So I took this photo, and then played with it...)
(Another version, played with differently.)

Floating in the pool,
Watching as the sky turns black,
And, yet, no rain falls.

Perched above the pond,
A hawk, waiting for movement,
Ready, now, to strike.

23 June 2014
Walking to my house,
Caught by a sudden downpour
And completely soaked.

21 June 2014
Noon. Sun, directly
Overhead, casts no shadows
On this longest day.
21 June 2014
(And a sunrise picture--I did not take this.)

Just before sunset,
And the sky is much brighter
Than it was at noon.

Air like a steam bath
Makes walking across the yard
Too much of an effort.

Barking her head off
At something only she sees...
Strange little watch dog.

15 June 2014
Afternoon sunlight
Caught a dragonfly in flight--
Fluttering green wings.

15 June 2014
It's early morning
As a nearly-full moon shines
Into our bedroom.

72 years past...
A young couple, my parents,
Began their journey.
13 June 2014
(And a picture of them,
with my older brother, in late 1946.)

A full moon tonight,
Seen behind a veil of clouds,
A ghostly vision.

My house is silent.
Outside, water drips gently,
A soft melody.

One thing about it--
A really hard rain causes
The frogs to shut up.

The dog goes crazy
When a rabbit hops into
Her view of the yard.

A crane glides into
Our pond, hidden in the reeds,
When I startle it.

1 June 2014
Silence, air dead calm.
The night is a like damp cloak.
Waiting for the storm.
