31 July 2014

Late afternoon, with
Dragonflies catching the sun,

Small flying jewels.

30 July 2014

Afternoon thunder,
And the dog lies at my feet...
Safe for the moment...

29 July 2014

As I left for home,
The clouds parted, the rain stopped,
And the sky, the sky...

28 July 2014

An aching shoulder...
Too long at the computer.
Drugs, and then to bed.

Lying at my feet,
The dog believes she is safe...
The storm thunders on.

Driving west tonight,
Straight into the setting sun,

Going on instinct.

Waking to thunder.
The dog, seeking protection,
 Lies beside the bed.

The computer died...
I felt cut off from the world
For a little while

Sitting in the sun
With an old book, reading some...
Dozing between lines...

15 July 2014

Clouds lit by the sun
Sky turning purple at dusk
As I head for home

Sitting on the porch,
Watching the wind and rain whip
The trees back and forth.

Just as I left home,
Rain began falling.  And I
Had no umbrella.

Little yellow finch,
Eating seeds from the bush, why
Did you fly away?

Our dog is sleeping,
Curled between us in our bed,
Feeling safe with us.

In the southern sky,
Above the trees, past sunset,
The moon floating by...

5 July 2014

Two bad knees, bad back
Bad shoulders, bad left elbow--
Growing tired of this...

4 July 2014

A strange, quiet day,
Waiting for distant fireworks
To explode the night.

3 July 2014

And now it begins...
Two days of small explosions,
Keeping us awake.

(And scaring the dog...)

Little mosquito--
Sorry I had to kill you.

It was you or me.
